Why You Need a Business Analyst on Your Software Project
THE ROLE OF BUSINESS ANALYSIS
Business analysis (BA) in software development is the essential process that incorporates defining business needs, validating project ideas and feasibility, and facilitating communication between you and the tech team. It ensures that your future solution is built in alignment with operational requirements and addresses initial goals.
At Velvetech, we are not just following the BABOK Guide that’s recognized globally as the standard of business analysis. We are certified as an Endorsed Education Provider by IIBA, and our BA professionals have earned core certifications like ECBA, CCBA, and CBAP — knowledge and skills that drive tangible results for our clients.
