Task driven business analysis measures success on the completion of tasks while value driven business analysis measures value delivered rather than the number of completed tasks.

In value driven business analysis some tasks may never be completed, finalised and officially signed off.

Task Driven vs Value Driven, businesses can take advantage of value driven approaches.

Understanding an organisation’s strategic direction and key value streams enables the development and delivery of portfolios of work that deliver products and services to customers more efficiently.

These business analysis techniques can be used to trace the delivery of programs, projects and BAU to help uncover the necessary areas of change to deliver the desired outcomes and value.

• What is task driven vs value driven business analysis?
• How do you move from task driven to value driven business analysis?
• How much is “just enough business analysis”?
