Business Analysis: Our Role ...

Business Analysis

As a Business Analyst, our job is to partner with Project Management and Systems Development. Solutions are attained through:

  • Providing Detailed Project Objectives
  • Defining specific System Requirements
  • Business Process Analysis
  • Cost Benefit Analysis
 
  • In Business Systems Analysis, we concentrate on understanding the Problem, not the Solution.

  • Business Systems Analysis focuses on the Cost Benefits issues of the project.

 

Although there is only one title, the Business Analyst fills many roles:

  • Detective
    • Find and reveal what is not working and/or what is causing the apparent problem.

  • Counselor
    • Listen at length, to the problems and needs of the department members as the analysis moves forward.

  • Translator
    • Translate the needs of the various departments to the systems/development group while maintaining an even keel.
  • Communicator
    • Taking the same findings and communicating them to all related groups in a way where each one understands, in their own perspective.
  • Coordinator
    • Bring all of these groups together and insure that the understanding leads to an orchestrated effort that leads to a business solution.
  • Research Analyst
    • Dig, hunt, query, ask, interrogate until all pertinent issues and relevant matters are found and exposed.

  • Understanding the technical and business aspects of the project gives us a major advantage in successfully identifying the best solutions. The gathering, collating, sorting, filtering and coordination of information are definitive elements of the Business Analyst's research and investigative tools.

    Often, the principal actors of each involved department will contain the necessary pieces of the collective puzzle that must be assembled and communicated in its entirety to the development group. The translation of the various groups' needs and desires into one working document will be the task at hand. All the time, keeping everyone on track as to what best suits the purpose of the business!
