Business Analysis and Best Practices

Business Analysis as a skill is continually evolving. Understanding business problems and specifying technical solutions today is not what was called for even several years ago. Consumers of your analysis work, development teams and vendors, are more sophisticated. Development methodologies, such as Scrum, are far more agile. And deployment schemes, such as web services and the cloud, demand new ways of elaborating business solutions.

At Frontier, our overarching emphasis when providing business analysis expertise is to expose risk and elaborate complexity at the earliest possible opportunity.

We understand how to deliver up-to-date business analysis services for your most demanding software projects. If you’re building your own, our modeling and elicitation expertise helps agile development teams deliver robust, distributed solution components. If you’re looking to buy off-the-shelf, we’ll help you specify the most detailed business specification, which will include not only your business requirements, but a full complement of visual models and diagrams that elaborate every detail required to make a sound purchase. To accomplish these, we use a number of  proven analysis techniques that we consider best practices—but only as your project requires—each designed to attack a specific aspect of the problem:

  • Authority and Role Capture
  • Business Architecture Modeling
  • Business Entity Modeling
  • Business Event Capture and Modeling
  • Business Rule Capture and Modeling
  • Business Scenario Capture
  • Content Modeling
  • Data Modeling
  • Metric Identification and Linkage
  • Navigation Diagram Modeling
  • Requirements Capture, Analysis and Refactoring
  • Scope Modeling
  • State Modeling
  • Usage Scenario Modeling
  • Use Case Modeling and Authoring
