timeline, the analyst advises stakeholders that the requirements sessions should begin as soon as
possible.
Which key factor drives the selection of business analyst activities to be included in the project?
It’s A because the communication plan directly affects how soon and how well the requirements sessions can start, especially when time is tight. Without clear communication, starting early won’t be effective.
Option B makes the most sense here. The project life cycle defines the phases and timing of activities, so with a tight schedule, the analyst needs to align requirements sessions with the early phases. Communication plan (A) is important but more about how info flows, not which activities to pick. ROI or payback period (C and D) are financial metrics and don’t directly dictate analysis activities timing. So, the life cycle really drives what can be squeezed in when.
A imo, communication plan affects how quickly sessions can start and run effectively.
B, project life cycle shapes what activities come first in tight timelines.
