The Business Analysis Service Framework (BASF) identifies core and auxiliary services that support
business analysis activities. Auxiliary services supplement the core services and are essential for
delivering value.
Key Considerations:
Strategic Analysis: Focuses on high-level organizational goals and strategies but is not an auxiliary
service.
Stakeholder Engagement: Involves identifying, analyzing, and collaborating with stakeholders, which
supports all aspects of business analysis.
Project Management: While important, project management is a separate discipline and not part of
the BASF.
External Environment Analysis: Examines external factors (e.g., market trends) but is not an auxiliary
service.
Evaluation of Each Option:
A . Strategic analysis:
Strategic analysis is a core service, not an auxiliary service.
Conclusion: This is not correct .
B . Stakeholder engagement:
Stakeholder engagement is an auxiliary service that supports all business analysis activities by
ensuring stakeholder needs are understood and addressed.
Conclusion: This is correct .
C . Project management:
Project management is outside the scope of the BASF.
Conclusion: This is not correct .
D . External environment analysis:
External environment analysis is a core service, not an auxiliary service.
Conclusion: This is not correct .
