A project to implement a new HR system is behind schedule. The vendor has completed all core functionality, but user acceptance testing (UAT) has not been fully completed. The project sponsor is pressuring the BA to recommend acceptance so the project can close on time. The BA knows that some acceptance criteria have not been verified. What should the BA do?

Ask the vendor to certify that the solution meets the acceptance criteria.

Refuse to recommend acceptance until all acceptance criteria are verified.

Recommend acceptance because the core functionality is complete and the sponsor wants to close.

Recommend acceptance with a list of known unverified criteria and a plan to verify them after go-live.

What is the primary purpose of evaluating solution value?

To measure the business value delivered against the expected benefits and business case

To identify risks associated with the solution's performance

To verify that the solution meets all acceptance criteria

To ensure the solution was delivered on time and within budget

A company implemented a new analytics platform. The business case projected a 15% increase in revenue from better customer insights. After one year, the BA measures a 10% increase in revenue. The BA also notes that the company launched a new product line during the same period. What should the BA do to evaluate the solution's value?

Attribute the 10% increase to the analytics platform and report that it is delivering value.

Recommend decommissioning the platform because it did not meet the target.

Conclude that the platform is not delivering value because the target was not met.

Analyze the revenue data to isolate the impact of the analytics platform from the new product line.
