    Correct Answer: B

    The business analyst (BA) should ensure that the business needs are articulated from the enterprise perspective. This ensures a holistic approach, representing the overall interests and priorities of the entire organization, rather than focusing on the views or needs of individual stakeholders. Articulating the business needs from the enterprise perspective helps in aligning the project with the strategic goals of the organization and ensuring that the solution developed addresses the broader objectives.

Qualms

Option C is correct. BABOK pg 105: "Business needs are often identified or expressed along with a presumed solution."

MFZZOption: C

C is correct. It does not refer to an enterprise but rather how an organisation will represent the potential business opportunity that will be expressed to satisfy the solution
