WHAT IS BUSINESS ANALYSIS?
Business analysis (BA) is a research discipline
that aims to identify business needs and find
solutions to business problems.

The primary role of business analysts in software
development is bridging the gap between software
developers, clients and end users through data
gathering and analysis, research of competitors
and similar solutions, requirements definition
and documentation.

ANALYSTS IN SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COMPANIES?

Without business analysis and working out
requirements tailored to your business and user
needs, you may end up creating totally worthless
software that no one needs.

Business analysts should collaborate with other
players involved in the project to make sure they
are fully aware of the requirements to the
product.

11
To avoid spending time on redundant features and
create something that truly matters.

changes will be rejected, and the team will not
waste a minute of their time.

of the product and decide whether to pivot or
persevere.

Business analysts are a real asset for software
development companies. They specify requirements
and establish standards, facilitate communication
between stakeholders and software developers,
enable the latter to avoid wasting time on
superfluous elements and focus on really cool
features. They make sure the end product meets
all user needs.

Including a business analyst into the team is a
worthy investment that will reduce risks, save
you both time and money, and make your sleep
sound.
