Business analysis - Role
Systems analyst
Analyses how business needs, processes and existing systems translate into system changes or requirements
What's it for?
Works out how business needs should translate into changes to systems and information.
For example…
A systems analyst studies how sales staff use the existing CRM and translates the gaps into system requirements and interface changes
Before an old business system is replaced, the systems analyst works out its important rules, information and connections so the new system does not lose anything the business still needs
