CBAP Exam - Question 361


An insurance company wants to implement a business intelligence solution to consolidate data from various different internal systems to provide a better understanding of their customer base.

A business analyst (BA) is engaged to put together a tender (bid) to be sent to various business intelligence providers and implementation partners. Among other information, the business analyst requests the following:

✑ Licensing costs for Year 0 based on meeting 1 Central Processing Unit (CPU) license

✑ Licensing costs for specific user types such as Report Creators. Online Analytical Processing (OLAP) users and Power uses Predicted licensing costs for renewing in Years 1 ad 2

Full implementation costs -

After reviewing the received vendor responses the project team shortlists the candidates to 3 and the BA structures the received information as follows:

The BA also conducts a sensitivity analysis to compare the expected costs should the company's needs grow based on the following information:

Scenario 1: Ten extra report creator, 1 extra OLAP user and 1 extra power user licenses and 2 extra CPU licenses

Scenario 2: Twenty five extra report creator, 1 extra OLAP user and 1 extra power user licenses and 3 extra CPU licenses

What is the time difference in days between the shortest and longest implementation?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: BC

To determine the time difference between the shortest and longest implementation, we need to calculate the total implementation days for each company and find the difference between the maximum and minimum values. Company A's total implementation days are 30 + 60 + 120 = 210 days. Company B's total implementation days are 150 days. Company C's total implementation days are 159 days. The difference between the longest and shortest implementation is 210 days (Company A) - 150 days (Company B) = 60 days.
