IIBA ECBA Exam - Topic 8 Question 126 Discussion

Actual exam question for IIBA's ECBA exam
Question #: 126
Topic #: 8
[All ECBA Questions]

(You are tasked with evaluating the impact of proposed changes to requirements and designs for a software project. Which stakeholder group should you primarily seek support from to assess technical impacts of potential changes?)

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

The correct answer is A. BABOK states that the purpose of Assess Requirements Changes is to evaluate the implications of proposed changes to requirements and designs. For technical impacts in a software project, the most relevant support comes from stakeholders with implementation and technical knowledge. BABOK also refers to implementation subject matter experts as stakeholders with specialized knowledge regarding implementation, which in this context most closely matches the development team among the options you provided.

Option B is incorrect because project managers are important for schedule, scope, coordination, and delivery concerns, but they are not usually the primary source for detailed technical impact assessment.

Option C is incorrect because marketing stakeholders can provide valuable business and customer insight, but they are not the primary group for evaluating technical consequences of design or requirement changes.

For Question 49, only three options were visible in your message, so I formatted it using the choices you provided.

Wait, why would we ask marketing? That seems off.

I disagree, marketing has no clue about technical impacts.

I feel like the development team should be the primary focus for technical impacts, but I wonder if the marketing team might have some input on user experience that could influence the changes.

I'm a bit torn on this one. The development team seems like the obvious answer, but what if project managers have a better grasp of the overall project scope?

I remember a similar question where we had to identify key stakeholders. I think the development team is crucial for assessing technical impacts, but I could see project managers playing a role too.

I think the development team would be the best choice since they understand the technical aspects of the project. But I'm not entirely sure if project managers might also have valuable insights.
