FAQs
Business Analysis FAQs
Answers to common questions about our business analysis process, timelines, technologies and ongoing support.
QWhat is a discovery workshop and when is one useful?
A discovery workshop is a structured session used to understand your organisation’s goals, users, requirements, challenges and priorities before a digital project begins. It brings key stakeholders together to establish a shared understanding of what the project needs to achieve and identify important requirements early.
Discovery workshops are particularly useful for complex website or digital projects, projects involving multiple stakeholders, or when the best solution is not yet clear. They can help reduce uncertainty, uncover potential risks and provide a stronger foundation for project planning, requirements and delivery.
QHow do you gather and document requirements for a website or digital platform?
Website and digital platform requirements are gathered through discovery, stakeholder consultation and analysis of your organisation’s goals, users, existing systems and processes. This helps identify functional requirements, technical requirements, integrations, content needs and any accessibility, security or governance considerations.
These requirements are then documented and structured to create a clear reference point for design and development. Defining requirements early helps align stakeholders, reduce ambiguity and rework, and ensure the final digital solution addresses both user needs and organisational objectives.
QCan business analysis help if we don't yet know what solution we need?
Yes. Business analysis is particularly valuable when your organisation understands the problem it needs to solve but is unsure what the right digital solution looks like. The process focuses on understanding your goals, users, existing systems, workflows and requirements before recommending a particular technology or approach.
By exploring the problem before committing to a solution, business analysis can help identify suitable options, uncover risks and dependencies, and provide a clearer roadmap for your digital project.
QWho should be involved in a discovery workshop?
A discovery workshop should involve the key stakeholders who understand the organisation, its users, processes and project goals. This may include project leads, decision-makers, subject matter experts, technical representatives and people responsible for managing the website or digital platform.
For projects involving multiple teams or departments, including representatives with different perspectives can help uncover requirements and potential challenges early. The aim is to involve the people needed to make informed decisions without making the workshop unnecessarily large.
QAt what stage of a project should business analysis happen?
Business analysis is most valuable at the beginning of a digital project, before major decisions about design, technology or development have been made. Early business analysis helps define project goals, user needs, requirements, risks and priorities before committing to a particular solution.
Business analysis can also provide value throughout a project as requirements evolve or new challenges emerge. Involving a business analyst early creates a clearer foundation for planning and delivery, while ongoing analysis helps keep the project aligned with organisational objectives.
QHow long does a discovery phase typically take?
The length of a discovery phase depends on the complexity of the project, the number of stakeholders involved and how clearly the requirements are already understood. A straightforward website project may require a relatively short discovery period, while complex digital platforms, integrations or projects involving multiple stakeholder groups may require more extensive analysis.
Discovery should provide enough time to understand the organisation, users, requirements and potential risks before design or development begins. This helps reduce uncertainty and creates a clearer foundation for project planning and delivery.
