Business Analysis Process

1. Observe (Gather Information)

Key Focus: Collect raw data and insights about business problems, processes, and stakeholder needs.
Implementation in Business Analysis:
Conduct stakeholder interviews, workshops, and surveys.
Analyze system logs, reports, and key business metrics.
Observe user behavior and workflows.
Use tools like process mapping and journey mapping to capture how things work today.
Leverage market trends, competitor analysis, and industry benchmarks.
Example: A BA working on an e-commerce checkout process would gather data on user drop-off rates, customer complaints, and system performance.
⁠

2. Orient (Analyze & Interpret)

Key Focus: Make sense of the information collected, identify patterns, and understand the problem in its broader context.
Implementation in Business Analysis:
Perform gap analysis between the current state and desired future state.
Use techniques like SWOT analysis, fishbone diagrams, or 5 Whys to diagnose root causes.
Identify business constraints, regulatory requirements, and risks.
Prioritize findings using impact analysis (e.g., MoSCoW, RICE framework).
Develop personas and user stories to contextualize insights.
Example: After observing checkout abandonment, the BA might analyze that the primary cause is a complicated payment process with too many steps.
⁠

3. Decide (Define the Best Course of Action)

Key Focus: Recommend solutions, define requirements, and ensure alignment with business objectives.
Implementation in Business Analysis:
Collaborate with stakeholders to brainstorm potential solutions.
Validate options through feasibility studies or prototypes.
Define clear business requirements, functional specifications, and success criteria.
Use decision matrices to weigh different approaches.
Align with Agile principles if working in an iterative environment.
Example: The BA proposes streamlining the checkout process by reducing form fields and adding a one-click payment option.
⁠

4. Act (Implement & Measure)

Key Focus: Execute the decision, track outcomes, and iterate as necessary.
Implementation in Business Analysis:
Support development teams by refining requirements and ensuring alignment with business goals.
Monitor implementation progress through KPIs and feedback loops.
Conduct UAT (User Acceptance Testing) to validate business needs.
Adapt quickly based on stakeholder feedback or changing conditions.
Iterate through the OODA Loop as new data emerges.
Example: After launching the streamlined checkout, the BA monitors conversion rates, gathers user feedback, and identifies areas for further improvement.
