The stakeholder impact analysis captures the stakeholders' functions, locations, tasks, and concerns about the solution.

Answer C is incorrect. An organizational assessment isn't a valid element for the assessment of organizational readiness.

Answer D is incorrect. The operational analysis will predict if the organization will actually take advantage of the solution once it's implemented.

Answer A is incorrect. A technical assessment, like an operational assessment, reviews the implementation to see if the stakeholders will use the solution once it's been implemented.

Risk assessments are not inputs to the task of assessing proposed solutions. Business analysts will need assumptions and constraints, requirements, and solution options to consider.

Answer D is incorrect. Assumptions and constraints are inputs to the task of assessing the proposed solution. Answer B is incorrect. Requirements are inputs to the task of assessing the proposed solution.

Answer A is incorrect. Solution options are inputs to the task of assessing the proposed solution.

Traceability can help a business analyst determine the full impact of a change on requirements.

When changes are presented and/or approved, traceability helps the business analyst determine what changes affect other requirements within the set.

Answer C is incorrect. A coverage matrix can be used to help facilitate tracing of requirements.

Answer A is incorrect. An Implementation SME is a stakeholder, not a tool, who may help link requirements to the solution components.

Answer D is incorrect. Integrated change control is a project management activity, not a business analysis tool, so this choice is incorrect.

Nancy is making an assumption that the software will make the entire sales process better. She's identified a solution that she assumes will improve the entire sales process.

Answer D is incorrect. While there will be a cost and time element, this isn't the best answer to the question and scenario.

Answer B is incorrect. There are constraints in the analysis process, so this isn't the best choice.

Answer C is incorrect. While this statement is true, it doesn't address Nancy's assumption about the solution; she's already attached to the problem.

A requirement is considered valid as long as the business stakeholders need it. This is true for ongoing requirements that are reused in the organization.

Answer D is incorrect. This isn't a valid statement as to why satisfied requirements are still considered requirements.

Answer B is incorrect. This isn't a valid statement as to why satisfied requirements are still considered requirements.

Answer A is incorrect. This isn't a valid statement; the ability to change a requirement doesn't make it necessarily a satisfied requirement.

Of all the choices, the belief about the project team members is the best example of an assumption.

An assumption is something that is believed to be true, but it has not been proven to be true.

Answer B is incorrect. This is an example of a constraint. Answer D is incorrect. This is an example of a requirement.

A coverage matrix is a table used to manage tracing. It is ideal for smaller projects where there are few requirements to trace. It's also ideal for when only the high-level requirements need to be traced.

Answer B is incorrect. A requirements trace matrix is a table used to track requirements' relationships. The columns in the table provide requirements information and associated project. It is ideal for a solution with many requirements to trace throughout the solution.

Answer C is incorrect. A roles and responsibility matrix maps team members to their work in the project or business analysis duties.

Answer D is incorrect. A RACI chart is a type of roles and responsibilities matrix that uses the legend of responsible, accountable, consult, and inform.

The purpose of assessing proposed solutions is to determine how closely they meet stakeholder and solution requirements. The business analyst, while assessing a single solution, determines whether the solution delivers enough business value to justify its implementation.

However, the business analyst has the additional goal of attempting to determine which solution delivers the greatest business value while assessing multiple alternative solutions.

Answer C is incorrect. The business analyst can have multiple solutions for a business need. Answer B is incorrect. The opportunity cost is not applicable to this scenario.

Answer D is incorrect. The fastest implementation may not necessarily be the best solution for an organization.
