You are the business analyst for the YGT Organization. You have just completed a capabilities gap assessment and have determined that your organization does not have the necessary resources and technology to seize a business opportunity.
What is the most likely course of action for the organization?
Given that the organization lacks both the necessary resources and technology to seize the business opportunity, hiring contractors to complete the project work is the most likely course of action. This solution allows the organization to acquire the expertise and technology it currently lacks without the long-term commitment of hiring additional permanent staff or over-committing to new projects. This approach is also flexible and can be scaled according to the specific needs of the project, making it a strategic choice in addressing capability gaps.
hire contractors and let them go after the deliverable is done
Ans C: You do not have resources as well as technology. Option A is only about resources.
If the enterprise can meet the need with the current state capabilities, then the change will likely be relatively small, or there may be no change at all. In any other case, a change strategy is needed to create the missing capabilities or improve the existing ones. (Babok Page 127) New change strategy involves new business need, then new project. The answer is B. The answer can't be D because we are in define change strategy task. In this task we perform a gap analysis between current and future state, assesses options(opportunity) for achieving the future state, and we recommend the highest value approach for reaching the future state including any transition states that may be required along the way.(page 100)
So which option did you choose?
B and D seems similar
As per BABOK v3 pg 128/129 it depends on cost/benefits. The net benefits of a future state may be very high, but if the investment is unbearable ("they just can't afford the change") the enterprise may pass on the opportunity, and invest in something else.
