CBAP Exam - Question 387


A corporation is experiencing poor financial performance and needs to change many aspects of its business strategy in order to become solvent again. A business analyst (BA) is conducting a feasibility analysis and analyzing resources required. The BA has identified the existing resources, the resources that need to be increased, and the required additional capabilities. What is the other dimension this analysis should indicate?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: AB

In addition to identifying existing resources and those that need to be increased, a feasibility analysis must also evaluate the new resources to be developed. This dimension is essential because it addresses the potential need for additional resources that do not yet exist but are necessary to execute the new business strategy effectively.

Answer is C. Read the last sentence in the following section: BABOK V-3 6.6.4.1-.5 .3 enterprise readiness assessment: An assessment that describes the enterprise is prepared to accept the change associated with a solution and is able to use it effectively. Business analysts analyze the enterprise to assess its capacity to make the change and to sustain the change in the future state. The readiness assessment considers the enterprise’s capacity not only to make the change, but to use and sustain the solution, and realize value from the solution. The assessment also factors in the cultural readiness of the stakeholders and operational readiness in making the change, the timeline from when the change is implemented to when value can be realized, and the resources available to support the change effort.

6.2.4.9 Define Future State: Internal Assets- The analysis of resources might indicate that existing resources need to be increased or require increased capabilities, or that new resources need to be developed. When analyzing resources, business analysts examine the resources needed to maintain the current state and implement the change strategy, and determine what resources can be used as part of a desired future state. The assessment of existing and needed resources is considered when performing a feasibility analysis on possible solution approaches for the change strategy.

ok, I'm convinced... while timeline analysis is essential, it does not directly address the need for developing new resources, which is the focus of option B.
