A business analyst is ready to begin requirements elicitation; however, stakeholders are not available to participate for another two weeks. Which elicitation technique should the business analyst use during this time?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

The business analyst should use document analysis as an elicitation technique during this time. Document analysis is a technique that involves reviewing and analyzing existing documents, such as policies, procedures, standards, reports, or contracts, to elicit information about the business needs, requirements, or solution options. Document analysis is useful when the stakeholders are not available to participate, or when the business analyst needs to gain background knowledge or context before engaging with the stakeholders.Document analysis can also help to identify gaps, issues, or assumptions that need to be clarified or validated with the stakeholders later.Reference: PMI Professional in Business Analysis (PMI-PBA) Examination Content Outline1, page 12; Business Analysis for Practitioners: A Practice Guide2, page 51.

Benchmarking sounds like a good idea, but I'm not sure how relevant it would be without the stakeholders. Maybe we could do some research and then get their input when they're available.

Brainstorming could be interesting, but I'm not sure it's the best fit if the stakeholders aren't around. Maybe we could do some solo brainstorming and then have them review it later.

I think document analysis is the way to go. The stakeholders aren't available, so we need to dig into the existing documentation to get started.

Brainstorming could also be helpful to generate ideas while waiting for the stakeholders.

Document analysis is a good choice. We can gather a lot of information from existing documents.
