NEW QUESTION # 16
While gathering information during a requirements workshop, a subject matter expert states that it is likely that an organizational restructure will occur in one of the business departments that will be utilizing parts of the new system. As such, the business analyst (BA) should:
- A. proceed as if the business unit will not be restructured and wait for the organization to confirm otherwise.
- B. record a risk that requirements may change and further explore the likelihood and impact of the risk.
- C. note the constraint that the solution must be flexible to accommodate different roles after implementation.
- D. ask the project sponsor to confirm whether and when the restructure will occur.
Answer: C
Explanation:
According to the BABOK Guide, a constraint is a restriction or limitation on possible solutions1. Among the four options, only C describes a valid constraint that limits the design and implementation of the solution. If an organizational restructure is likely to occur in one of the business departments that will use the new system, the solution must be flexible enough to accommodate different roles and responsibilities after the change.
Therefore, the BA should note this constraint and communicate it to the project team and stakeholders.
Therefore, the correct answer is C.

Therefore, any requirements that do not deliver value to stakeholders should be removed from the requirements set, as they are unnecessary, irrelevant, or wasteful. The other options are not appropriate actions for the business analyst to take, as they do not address the issue of value alignment. References:

- A. WBS
- B. Terminology register
- C. Data dictionary
- D. Business analysis register
Answer: B

A terminology register is one of the outputs of the Plan Business Analysis Approach task, which is part of the Business Analysis Planning and Monitoring knowledge area. A terminology register is different from a data dictionary, which describes the attributes and relationships of data elements in a solution. A WBS is a work breakdown structure, which is a hierarchical decomposition of the project scope and deliverables. A business analysis register is a tool that tracks the status and ownership of business analysis deliverables and issues.
