3 Introductions Name Current projects Exam preparation

4 Chapter 7 Requirements Analysis & Design Definition Refer to BACCM

5 7.1 Specify and Model Requirements The purpose of Specify and Model Requirements is to analyze, synthesize, and refine elicitation results into requirements and designs. Focus on understanding need requirements Focus on solution design What are the two modeling formats? What are the model categories?

6 7.2 Verify Requirements To ensure that requirements and designs specifications and models meet quality standards What are some characteristics of requirements and design quality?

7 7.3 Validate Requirements To ensure that all requirements and designs align to the business requirements and support the delivery of needed value. Identify assumptions manage associated risks Define measurable evaluation criteria what does this mean? Evaluate Alignment with Solution Scope - When requirements do not align, either the future state must be re-evaluated and the solution scope changed, or the requirement removed from the solution scope

8 7.4 Define Requirements Architecture To ensure that the requirements collectively support one another to fully achieve the objectives Discuss inputs (section 7.4.3)

9 7.5 Define Design Options To define the solution approach, identify opportunities to improve the business, allocate requirements across solution components, and represent design options that achieve the desired future state What are some solution approaches?

10 7.6 Analyze Potential Value and Recommend Solution To estimate the potential value for each design option and to establish which one is most appropriate to meet the enterprise s requirements Discuss elements (7.6.4)

11 Chapter 8 Solution Evaluation Refer to BACCM

12 8.1 Measure Solution Performance To define performance measures and use the data collected to evaluate the effectiveness of a solution Discuss techniques (8.1.6)

13 8.2 Analyze Performance Measures To provide insights into the performance of a solution If the measures are not sufficient to help stakeholders determine solution value, business analysts either collect more measurements or treat the lack of measures as a solution risk

14 8.3 Assess Solution Limitations To determine the factors internal to the solution that restrict the full realization of value Discuss elements (8.3.4)

15 8.4 Assess Enterprise Limitations To determine how factors external to the solution are restricting value realization How would culture be a limitation?

16 8.5 Recommend Actions to Increase Solution Value To understand the factors that create differences between potential value and actual value, and to recommend a course of action to align them What is an example of an Eliminate Redundancy action?
