COEPD – Center of Excellence for Professional Development Happy Learning
A business analyst collaborates with the technical team and serves as a point of contact for the client’s stakeholders and the technological team. He represents the technical team to the client, and a business analyst will handle all client communications.
Responsibilities
- Customer communications
- Responsibility for requirements
- Reengineering processes
In a project, a business analyst will carry out the following tasks.
- Compile requirements through elicitation methods
- UML-documents the requirement
- Show the technical team a model of the requirement.
- Keeps track of the criteria as they are being developed.
- Manage requests for changes
- Promotes UAT (User Acceptance Testing)
Second-Order Rules
- Only use our IT solutions to address client issues
As business analysts, we shouldn’t delve into the causes of company failure and offer suggestions for how to overcome it.
- Try to be like a lotus in mud.
The person who travels independently through the world without attachment to any particular views or points of view does not engage in debates or arguments.
- Never hold onto tension; always let it go.
Business analysts shouldn’t let customer frustrations get to them because it solely relates to the project.
- Hurried requirement – buried project
Avoid rushing while acquiring the necessary information and giving in to the pressure your management has put on you.
- Never disparage a stakeholder; always acknowledge them for their efforts, no matter how minor.
You must manage both professional and personal relationships with each associate as a business analyst.
Guidelines for business analysts:
Never refuse a client.
No such thing as “BY Default” exists.
Never consider using a GUI.
Question everything in the world and the existence of existence.
Ex. Client information is not always accurate.
