Alex

I was heavily involved in every project of size M+; strategy; management; IT support coordination.

March 7

• Last 6+ months experience demonstrated limits of BAs and need for SA to interface with MOs directly at early stages of task development and then drive all tasks except those with small architectural impact.

• BAs could be used for many other important activities:
  • support
  • user guides
  • BR docs
  • coordination
  • etc

• NY BASA team must engage in massive verbal discussions at early stages of M/XL/L tasks development (writing RFSA here and emailing it will not work!)

• Kiev Dev team must submit proposal of a solution verbally or in writing and after implementation explain again how they implemented

• Architect must review ALL tasks at early stages (with MOs) and then again after spec before development. Must initiate / participate in joint design meetings

• MOs plans in Word docs!
