A BA is planning governance for a large enterprise project. The project has multiple workstreams, and requirements will be managed by different teams. The BA needs to establish a process for approving changes to requirements that ensures consistency and traceability. What should the BA do?

Allow each workstream to manage its own requirement changes independently to speed up delivery.

Define a change control board (CCB) with representatives from each workstream and a documented process for submitting, reviewing, and approving requirement changes.

Use a single approver, such as the project sponsor, to approve all requirement changes.

Document all requirements in a shared repository but do not define a formal change process.

A BA is starting a new project to implement a customer relationship management (CRM) system. The BA has identified the sales team, marketing team, and IT support as stakeholders. During planning, the BA discovers that the sales team is enthusiastic, the marketing team is neutral, and IT support is resistant because they fear increased workload. What should the BA do to plan stakeholder engagement?

Treat all stakeholders equally with the same level of communication to avoid favoritism.

Wait until the requirements are defined to engage stakeholders, as they may change their attitudes.

Focus engagement on the resistant IT support team to win them over, and provide minimal communication to the other groups.

Develop a tailored engagement plan that leverages the sales team's enthusiasm, provides information to the marketing team, and addresses the IT support team's concerns.
