Which method should the BA use to start collecting data?

Universal Containers just rolled out a new sales methodology and process. A month after the initial training, the manager has noticed some reps have a large number of overdue tasks. The manager is unsure if it’s a learning curve or a system issue and has asked the business analyst (BA) to determine the cause and recommend a solution.

Which method should the BA use to start collecting data?
A . Brainstorming and prototyping
B . Observation and interviewing
C . focus groups and workshops

Answer: B

Explanation:

This answer suggests observation and interviewing as methods to collect data for the BA to determine the cause and recommend a solution for UC’s sales challenge. Observation and interviewing are techniques that help the BA understand how users perform their tasks, what challenges they face, and what their needs and expectations are. Observation involves watching users in their natural environment, while interviewing involves asking users open-ended questions.
