A business analyst (BA) conducts a business rules analysis exercise to identify the organizational rules constraining the project. In addition to existing regulations and contracts, what else does the BA check?
In addition to existing regulations and contracts, the business analyst (BA) should check the organization's policies. Policies are a common source of business rules that define how an organization operates, including constraints and guidelines that must be followed. Backlogs, a permissions matrix, and a business case are important project management tools but do not typically contain business rules that constrain the project.
C - p241
Sources of business rules may be explicit (for example, documented business policies, regulations, or contracts) or tacit (for example, undocumented stakeholder know-how, generally accepted business practices, or norms of the corporate culture). Business rules should be explicit, specific, clear, accessible, and single sourced.Pg-241
