Stakeholder requirements were approved for a business process reengineering initiative along with the creation of a roadmap.
Due to market conditions, the product roadmap is modified to move the default process to the next iteration. What should the business analyst (BA) modify in the stakeholder requirements?
Requirement attribute values
Requirement description
Requirement performance measures
Correct Answer:
Scope model
Explanation:
Requirement attributes are additional pieces of information that provide more details about each requirement1. They can include information such as priority, source, status, owner, risk, complexity, etc1. When the product roadmap is modified due to changing market conditions, the BA should modify the requirement attribute values to reflect the new situation and communicate the impact to the stakeholders2. For example, the priority of some requirements may change, the status of some requirements may be deferred or cancelled, the risk of some requirements may increase or decrease, etc2. Modifying the requirement attribute values helps the BA to manage the requirements effectively and ensure alignment with the business objectives and stakeholder needs3.
Requirement description is the statement that captures what the requirement is about and what it intends to achieve1. It should be clear, concise, consistent, and testable1. Requirement description does not need to be modified unless the requirement itself changes or is clarified4.
Requirement performance measures are the criteria that are used to evaluate the degree to which the requirement meets the stakeholder expectations and the business value1. They can include metrics such as quality, timeliness, cost, customer satisfaction, etc1. Requirement performance measures do not need to be modified unless the stakeholder expectations or the business value change5.
Scope model is a graphical representation of the boundaries and relationships of the solution and its components1. It can include diagrams such as context diagram, scope diagram, feature model, use case diagram, etc1. Scope model does not need to be modified unless the scope of the solution changes or is refined6.
