According to the BABOK Guide, validating performance measures and alignment with KPIs is a technique for evaluating solution performance. This technique can help the BA determine whether the system is performing as intended and address the concerns of the CEO, as it provides evidence of how well the system meets the expected outcomes and benefits3. By comparing the performance measures with the key performance indicators (KPIs), the BA can assess if the system is delivering value to stakeholders and meeting their needs and expectations. Therefore, the correct answer is D. References: BABOK Guide, [CCBA Mock Test]

According to the BABOK® Guide, performance measurement is a technique that helps to assess the effectiveness and efficiency of a solution or a solution component. Performance measurement helps to evaluate whether the solution is contributing to the desired value by comparing the actual results with the expected results. If the performance measures do not indicate whether or not the solution is contributing to the desired value, the recommended next step is to identify and collect more measurements that are relevant, reliable, and valid for the evaluation. This will help to provide a more comprehensive and accurate picture of the solution performance and value. References: BABOK® Guide, Version 3, Chapter 8: Solution Evaluation, Section 8.2: Analyze Performance Measures, Page 304; Chapter 10: Techniques, Section 10.32: Performance Measurement, Page 426.

 The scenario describes a task that involves creating a business process model (BPM) for the error-handling process on the website. The BPM is a technique used by business analysts to visualize and document the activities, flows, and roles involved in a business process. The BA has two sources of information for this task: the workshop results and the instruction manual. The BA should use both sources to create the BPM, but also identify and resolve any discrepancies in process between them with the stakeholders. This would ensure that the BPM is accurate, consistent, and aligned with the stakeholder needs and expectations.

References: The answer and explanation are consistent with the CCBA® Handbook and the IIBA® website, which provide the details and best practices for the business process modelling technique as part of the business analysis process12. The CCBA® resources also describe the importance of validating and verifying the requirements and the solution design with the stakeholders12.

 Engaging with key stakeholders to review the current adaptive approach allows for a collaborative assessment of its suitability for the new project’s complexity.
