Approach to Business

Some business analysis projects seem never to end. Given that business organizations are so very complex, this is hardly surprising. To avoid "analysis paralysis", it is important that the business analyst not delve into too much detail too early in a project. It is more important to understand the forest than worrying about each and every tree. Of key importance is not to fall into the black hole of technical detail and exception.

The Business Analysis Approach document describes how business analysis will be handled for a given project. It sets the stage at the beginning for the manner in which a project’s business analysis will be played out, and it provides broad descriptions that lay the foundation for further refining the necessary business analysis activities through subsequent tasks. The selected methodology may be highly plan-driven, such as Waterfall, or more change-driven, such as Agile. The Business Analysis Approach document may include a description of which organizational process assets will be utilized, and broad descriptions of team roles, project deliverables, and stakeholder communications.

By adopting a top-down, iterative approach, the analyst can focus on the big picture, the "normal" business process and on priority business areas. Subsequent analysis iterations can then delve into the exception situations and details.

The analyst will often discover that although "exceptions" might account for a small percentage of the workflow, the effort needed to address those exceptions can be huge. Consequently, it is important to identify exception situations, but not to focus on them during the initial round of analysis work.

The ability to identify and isolate areas of complexity or exception is an important skill for the business analyst to learn. When exceptions are identified, the analyst should always ask "How frequently does this situation occur?" (i.e. percentage of cases) and "How much time is expended dealing with the exception?" (i.e. hours per month).

To help ensure that business analysis is done in an iterative manner, it is a good idea to time-box each iterative cycle.
