A system enhancement project has been initiated to address the concerns of an external group...

 Engaging all stakeholders early in the requirements gathering phase is a good practice to ensure stakeholder satisfaction with the enhancement. By involving the stakeholders in the elicitation process, the business analyst can understand their needs, expectations, preferences, and constraints. By defining the acceptance criteria with the stakeholders, the business analyst can establish a clear and measurable definition of what constitutes a successful solution. Engaging all stakeholders early can also help to build trust, collaboration, and buy-in for the change. Requesting that the project manager identify all affected project stakeholders is not sufficient to ensure stakeholder satisfaction, as it does not involve direct communication with the stakeholders. Providing all signed-off project documentation to the stakeholders for information purposes only is not effective, as it does not allow for feedback or validation from the stakeholders. Soliciting feedback and adding requirements to the project backlog is not advisable, as it can lead to scope creep, rework, and delays. References: PMI Professional in Business Analysis (PMI-PBA)® Examination Content Outline1, page 11; Business Analysis for Practitioners: A Practice Guide2, page 66.
