IIBA Updated CCBA Exam Questions and Answers by carmen

The BA should assess the impact of the forthcoming legislation immediately when it is logged in the action items register. This is because assessing the impact of a change is a technique that involves analyzing how a change affects the existing or proposed solution, business processes, stakeholders, or organization. Assessing the impact of the forthcoming legislation immediately can help the BA to identify and mitigate any potential risks or issues that might have an impact on the proposed architecture and plan accordingly. The other options are not as urgent or appropriate as assessing the impact immediately. References:

 An assumption is an influencing factor that is believed to be true but has not been confirmed to be accurate or that could be true now but may not be in the future1. The BA suggests identifying high customer demand by young families as an assumption because it is a factor that influences the business case and the solution design, but it is not based on any evidence or data. By identifying this assumption, the BA can manage the associated risks, such as the possibility of low customer demand, customer dissatisfaction, or market competition. The BA can also plan to validate or update this assumption as more information becomes available or as the market conditions change. The other options are not the main reasons for identifying assumptions, as they are either outcomes or activities that depend on the assumptions. References: [A Guide to the Business Analysis Body of Knowledge® (BABOK® Guide)], Chapter 3: Business Analysis Planning and Monitoring, Section 3.4: Plan Business Analysis Approach, Task 3.4.2: Define Assumptions and Constraints, Page 49.

Standard templates and syntax help to ensure that the correct information about the requirements is provided to the participants of a requirements elicitation workshop. Standard templates and syntax are used to document and communicate requirements in a consistent and clear manner, avoiding ambiguity and confusion. They also help to organize and structure the requirements according to their type, priority, and relationship1. Standard templates and syntax are also a technique for specifying and modelling requirements2. References: 1: BABOK Guide v3, Section 4.3 2: BABOK Guide v3, Section 4.5.6

Item tracking methods are techniques to monitor and control the status of items such as issues, defects, changes, or action items. They help to manage and resolve the outstanding issues that have been logged in an issues register. Requirements documentation, requirements analysis, and metrics and KPIs are not techniques for managing and resolving issues. References: BABOK Guide v3, page 387; CCBA Mock Test, question 13
