An excellent synopsis of the relationship between business analysis and service management

Interesting article, I find in practical experience that there is a fuzzy boundary within BA, especially in the context of software development. Requirements Definition can sometimes become a set of functional requirements without actually looking deeper into the business process flow's involved.

The chart with the linkages between BA activities and ITIL stream is a useful chart and one to refer back to when espousing the benefits of BA linked to the change process.

It is unfortunate that the boundary is, as you say, Carl, somewhat fuzzy, and the language is different between the different practices.

Our intention with the article was to try to bring the two closer together.

It's essential that there's a connection between organisational requirements (service governance - now part of the spine of ITIL 4) for value, and the design, development and deployment of services to co-create that value.
