A business analyst has been assigned to help develop a plan for expanding a business that produces software for mobile phones and has interview he managing director to understand his perspective regarding the expansion. The managing director's worldview is as follows:
''The purpose of our business is to develop and sell software for mobile phones. The expansion will enable us to increase the amount of software we procedure, so we can keep pace with the growing demand of the market for software that is easy to use.''
Which of the following is a 'transformation' for this worldview?
Transformation is the element of CATWOE that describes what changes or processes take place in a business situation or problem or its solution. It helps to identify what inputs are converted into outputs in a business situation or problem or its solution. Therefore, option A is the correct answer, as it is the transformation for this worldview. Develop and sell software for mobile phones is the transformation for this worldview, as it describes what changes or processes take place in the business situation or problem or its solution. It identifies what inputs (software development resources) are converted into outputs (software products) in the business situation or problem or its solution. Option B is not a correct answer, as it is not the transformation for this worldview, but an aspect of the output quality. Ensure that software is easy to use is not the transformation for this worldview, but an aspect of the output quality. It describes how the output (software products) should meet the customer needs and expectations, not what changes or processes take place in the business situation or problem or its solution. Option C is not a correct answer, as it is not the transformation for this worldview, but an aspect of the environment. Keep pace with the growing demands of the market is not the transformation for this worldview, but an aspect of the environment. It describes an external factor or constraint that affects the stakeholder's perspective or limits their options, not what changes or processes take place in the business situation or problem or its solution. Option D is not a correct answer, as it is not the transformation for this worldview, but an aspect of the desired outcome. Increase the amount of software we produce is not the transformation for this worldview, but an aspect of the desired outcome. It describes what the stakeholder wants to achieve from the business situation or problem or its solution, not what changes or processes take place in the business situation or problem or its solution.
