Detailed Responsibilities
- Requirements Gathering, e.g. Conduct interviews, workshops, or focus group discussions with stakeholders to understand their needs and requirements. Document these requirements clearly, ensuring they’re specific, measurable, and unambiguous
- Business Process Mapping, e.g. Use tools like BPMN (Business Process Model and Notation) or flowcharts to visually represent the current (“as-is”) and desired (“to-be”) business processes. This helps in identifying inefficiencies and areas of improvement
- Data Analysis, e.g. Use SQL to extract data from databases or Excel for smaller datasets. Analyze the data to identify trends, patterns, or anomalies that might inform business decisions
