Business Analyst roles & responsibilities

Business analyst is a key person between business users(clients) and software engineers(typically technical & functional consultants & developers). They are the bridge between business users and technical people who will typically understand the business terminology & business language of the client and as well as technical language at the development place.

The essential duties of a business analyst is basically to gather the requirements of the client from business point of view and understand them thoroughly make a draft in MSWord (or some other form), and write use cases from that document in such a language that technical people will understand.

These use cases will be send to technical people from there they will make functional specification, technical specification, programming (coding, development) and finally testing of the product they made.

Business analyst will not sit idle until this process completes. In the entire process of development, technical persons will get some or many questions regarding the business and what ever the problems they get, will be reported back to business analyst and the business analyst will intern contact business users to discuss about the issue and understand the logic from business point of view and make a documentation and will give it to technical people.
This whole process will repeat until the product is completed or there are no questions from business understandability.
