CBAP Business Analyst Exam Prep

Answer: D - Functional requirements of a management system have to have the following written qualities: describe the capabilities of the solution, the conditions that must exist for the requirement to operate and constraints that prevent the solutions from fulfilling the requirement.

Key Takeaway: Written qualities of good functional requirements ensure that they are clear in the definition of the solution and those conditions and constraints that oppose the solution. For example, if a company’s requirements for a new IT system are so poorly written that stakeholders don’t understand them, the solution may not be implemented. Also, any constraints such as hard drive capabilities or financial limitations can get in the way of implementing business solutions.
