Exam CBAP topic 1 question 73 discussion

The type of business analysis approach that typically has the most business analysis work at the beginning of the project or during the start of a project phase is the Predictive approach. In a Predictive approach, the business analysis work is typically done upfront, during the project initiation and planning phases. This involves gathering and documenting requirements, defining the project scope, and developing a detailed project plan. The Predictive approach is often used in projects where the requirements are well-defined and stable, and where the project scope is clear. It's a more linear and sequential approach, where the business analysis work is done early on, and then the project is executed according to plan. In contrast, other approaches like Agile or Adaptive may involve more iterative and incremental business analysis work, where requirements are gathered and refined throughout the project lifecycle.
