Ans -A The definition of business needs is frequently the most critical step in any business analysis effort. A solution must satisfy the business needs to be considered successful. The way the need is defined determines which alternative solutions will be considered, which stakeholders will be consulted, and which solution approaches will be evaluated. Business needs are always expressed from the perspective of the enterprise, and not that of any particular stakeholder. Business needs are often identified or expressed along with a presumed solution.

Selected Answer: C
While business needs are indeed important for understanding the problems and opportunities faced by the enterprise, in this scenario, the emphasis is on identifying the criteria for evaluating the success of the solution being developed.

Do you use Solution limitation of current state to evaluate the solution (of future state)? Option "A" seems to be the right answer.

D is not correct, as the task 8.3 (assess solution limitations) is about the solution which already launched, but in this case, the solution will be developed over the next 12 months. But the measure can be defined (task 8.1) before the solution launched, and the measure will be used to evaluate the solution. So I think "C Success measures" is the correct answer.

Option A - Business needs - the problems and opportunities of strategic importance faced by the enterprise. An issue encountered in the organization, such as a customer complaint, a loss of revenue, or a new market opportunity, usually triggers the evaluation of a business need. That's why the need (goals) was used as an input to assessing the current state.
