We often call business analyst as a bridge between business and
development team but the real challenge of bridging the gap can be best
understood by the person who is in the shoes of a business analyst. It is a
business analyst’s job to understand what the business does, how it is done and
what is the process behind it. If an organization has multiple teams involved,
then understand how and why those teams are inter connected.
A Business analysts has to keep changing the colors like a
chameleon and mold into various roles in a project from start till the finish.
Let us discuss few of them in this article-
Big Picture View: Scope
creep is one of the major reasons why a project fails and to avoid this a
business analyst must have a bird’s eye view to have a clear picture of the
requirements.
Example:
In company SFDC316 business had put forward requirements to send
emails which was eventually drafted in business requirements document, later
there were phone calls back and forth between business and BSA regarding some
added functionality which was never confirmed by business in any kind of
written communication due to timeline getting affected business analysts
started building the system and released the product for User acceptance
testing. Business came back to BSA that the application functionality is far
different then what was discussed on call and pushed back for rebuild.
