The life of a consulting business analyst (BA) presents many different challenges than those faced by “in-house” BAs – some obvious and some not.

As individual practitioners, consulting BAs have to be highly adaptable and able to plan and execute business analysis efforts quickly, in diverse organizational environments.

BA’s also play a role in the sales cycle: assessing tender documents, peer-reviewing proposals, and qualifying potential new business opportunities.

Version 1 is an IT consultancy in Ireland and the UK.  They recognize these challenges and have used the BABOK® Guide since 2009, as a key guide and reference to address them.

Hear from three senior consulting BAs at Version 1:

1. Scott Coombs (LinkedIn profile),
2. Keir Whytock (LinkedIn profile),
   
3. Sean Ryan (LinkedIn profile)

They will openly discuss their practice challenges, and provide details on their approach to turn those challenges into opportunities.

Specifically, they will share how the BABOK® Guide is used as the cornerstone of their own framework to,

• Build a thriving business analysis community of practice,
• Develop a “consulting perspective”,
• Build up their own skills development initiatives, and
• Broaden the impact of business analysis in their organization.

You will also gain insight into the special characteristics of the different industries in which these consulting BAs work (including, financial services and public sector) and how they affect business analysis practice.
