Exhibit

{
  "stakeholders": ["Sales", "IT", "Marketing"],
  "requirements": [
    {"id": "REQ01", "description": "User login", "status": "Approved"},
    {"id": "REQ02", "description": "Auto-save", "status": "Draft"}
  ]
}

Refer to the exhibit. A business analyst is reviewing the requirements status in a JSON export from a requirements management tool. The analyst notices that REQ02 is still in 'Draft' while REQ01 is 'Approved'. What should the analyst do next?

Answer choices

Why each option matters

Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.

Correct answer & explanation

Facilitate a review meeting for REQ02

A requirement in draft status needs to be reviewed and approved by stakeholders before proceeding, so facilitating a review meeting is the appropriate action.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • Update the traceability matrix

    Why it's wrong here

    Traceability is important but does not address the draft status.

  • Facilitate a review meeting for REQ02

    Why this is correct

    A review meeting allows stakeholders to evaluate and approve the draft requirement.

  • Approve REQ02 immediately

    Why it's wrong here

    Approving without review bypasses quality control and stakeholder input.

  • Request closure for REQ02

    Why it's wrong here

    Closure is premature without first completing the review and approval process.
