To help accomplish its mission of facilitating lawful international trade and ensuring dangerous and illegal cargo doesn’t enter the country, one of the government’s largest and most complex organizations initiated a multi-year project to modernize the business processes essential to securing U.S. borders.

A large part of the renovation was the use of customized Agile methodology to help deliver functionality to its end-users quicker and meet evolving business needs.

With the creation of Scrum teams and the addition of Business Analysts on those teams, this is the story of one Agile development team’s ability to push high-priority requirements through to convert product backlog into reality while the business stakeholders retain the capability to continuously refine and reprioritize that backlog.

What does Agile mean for the role of the business requirements analysts?

The case study offer perspective into the role of the Agile BA:

• Fully embrace the role of Product Owners Representative
• Structure the tool by sprints, not product
• Be flexible because of shifting product owner priorities
• Begin working with the capability owner and product owner early in the process
• Help think about velocity tied to use stories and picking the right work for the sprint
