What is the primary goal of solution evaluation in the PMI-PBA framework?
Answer: To assess how well a solution meets business needs and delivers intended value
Solution evaluation assesses whether the deployed solution achieves the intended business outcomes and delivers the value defined in the business case.
Which metric is MOST useful for evaluating whether a solution has delivered business value?

KPIs tied to business objectives provide measurable evidence of whether the solution has delivered the intended business value.
A solution has been deployed but users report it does not fully meet their needs. The BA should FIRST:
Answer: Conduct a gap analysis to identify the difference between expected and actual solution performance
A gap analysis identifies the specific differences between expected and actual performance, providing the foundation for targeted improvements.
What is 'acceptance criteria' in the context of solution evaluation?
Answer: Pre-defined conditions that a solution must meet to be accepted by stakeholders
Acceptance criteria are measurable conditions defined upfront that a solution must satisfy for stakeholders to formally accept it as meeting their requirements.
Which type of testing involves business stakeholders verifying that a solution meets their needs before formal acceptance?
Answer: User acceptance testing (UAT)
User acceptance testing (UAT) is performed by business stakeholders to confirm that the solution satisfies their requirements and is ready for production use.
What is a 'solution limitation' in the PMI-PBA context?
Answer: A constraint within the solution that prevents it from fully meeting all business needs
A solution limitation is an internal constraint of the deployed solution that prevents it from fully satisfying certain business needs, requiring trade-off decisions.
