Sam is preparing for the task of prioritizing requirements and he'll need five inputs to accomplish the task. Which one of the following is not an input that Sam will use to prioritize requirements?
Explanation:
The risk analysis is not an input but rather a technique or activity performed during the prioritization process. The inputs to prioritizing requirements include:
Business need (B) → To align priorities with organizational goals.
Requirements management plan (C) → Defines prioritization criteria and process.
Business case (D) → Provides cost-benefit context for prioritization.
Why Risk Analysis Is Not an Input:
Risk analysis is conducted during prioritization to evaluate requirements’ risks, but it is not a pre-existing input.
BABOK Reference (Chapter 5: Requirements Life Cycle Management - Prioritize Requirements):
Inputs include the business need, requirements, and management plan, while risk analysis is part of the prioritization method.
BABOK Section 5.2: Prioritize Requirements, the five inputs for prioritizing requirements are business need, requirements management plan, business case, stakeholder engagement approach, and requirements architecture. While risk is a factor that may influence the prioritization process, risk analysis itself is not listed as a direct input in this task. Instead, the prioritization of requirements considers factors like business need and business case, which inherently include considerations of risk without requiring a separate risk analysis input.
