Updated BA process

See Figure below.

BA Management and updates

I would like BAs to be as independent is possible (work with little supervision).

This means that after they receive BA Sprint Plan from CT2 Board (list of projects and tasks) they create more detailed plans for themselves and work independently only providing weekly status updates in the form of short written report and meeting (if required), once at the end of each week.

Example of BA monthly plan:

Example of BA weekly report:

TBD

Detailed example of BA monthly project plan

MUST be created at the beginning of sprint and sent to me for review
Please use format below.

NOTE1: You can use additional tabs (one per project for example) if more convenient.

NOTE2: Original xls can be downloaded from here: http://ct.jaguarfreight.com/mantis/file_download.php?file_id=2180&type=bug
