Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Stakeholder signoff of the requirements can be formal or informal, though either instance is a confirmation by the stakeholders that the business analyst has identified the completed and accurate requirements. Answer: D is incorrect. Robert is not done with his business analysis duties just because the requirements have been approved. Answer: B is incorrect. The project may not launch even though the requirements are accurate and complete. There could be other circumstances that prevent the project from launching - such as cost, feasibility, or tactics. Answer: A is incorrect. Requirements are simply the identified needs to solve a problem or present a solution. Projects are constrained by time, cost, and scope. Quality is not one of the three constraints but it is achieved by the balance of time, cost, and fulfillment of scope.
