Sombra end-to-end approach to business analysis services
Here's our approach to driving clear, actionable solutions:
Stakeholder engagement and goal alignment
When we start a cooperation with a client, we prioritize aligning the stakeholders' interests with their company's goals. To do that, we identify the key stakeholders and their needs. Next, our team facilitates the discussions to clarify business objectives via workshops or interviews. Therefore, together, we define measurable goals.
Requirements elicitation and prioritization
Our team gathers requirements and sorts them into functional and non-functional categories. Then, prioritize features based on their priority.
Define and document the scope of work
We collaborate with stakeholders to identify what is in-scope and out-of-scope, establish clear project boundaries, and define acceptance criteria.
Requirements management
It’s time to document the functional and non-functional requirements using user stories, use cases, or detailed specifications. During this step, we aim to maintain traceability by linking requirements to business goals and deliverables. Once we are fully prepared, we will schedule regular reviews to update the requirements in a timely manner.
Documentation management
Finally, our business analysis experts create updated documentation, like business requirements document (BRD) and system requirements specification (SRS). Like with the requirements, we support and maintain the client’s documentation and keep it up-to-date.
