To reduce the amount of time and effort needed to create a product specification for a project, the business analyst plans to reuse requirements. Requirements are statements that describe the needs, expectations, or capabilities of the stakeholders or the solution. Requirements can be reused from previous or similar projects, as long as they are relevant, consistent, and compatible with the current project context and objectives. Reusing requirements can help to save time and effort, avoid duplication or redundancy, leverage best practices, and ensure quality and compliance. Quantitative analysis is not something that the business analyst plans to reuse to reduce the amount of time and effort needed to create a product specification for a project. Quantitative analysis is a technique that involves using numerical data and methods to measure, compare, or evaluate the feasibility, value, or impact of a solution or an alternative. Quantitative analysis can be performed for different purposes and at different stages of the project, but it does not provide requirements for the product specification. Risk assessments are not something that the business analyst plans to reuse to reduce the amount of time and effort needed to create a product specification for a project. Risk assessments are techniques that involve identifying and analyzing potential threats or uncertainties that may affect the project or the solution. Risk assessments can help to prioritize, mitigate, or monitor risks, but they do not provide requirements for the product specification. Qualitative analysis is not something that the business analyst plans to reuse to reduce the amount of time and effort needed to create a product specification for a project. Qualitative analysis is a technique that involves using descriptive data and methods to understand, interpret, or evaluate the characteristics, behaviors, or perceptions of the stakeholders or the solution. Qualitative analysis can be performed for different purposes and at different stages of the project, but it does not provide requirements for the product specification. References: Business Analysis for Practitioners: A Practice Guide 1, page 114-115; PMI Professional in Business Analysis (PMI-PBA)® Examination Content Outline 2, page 17-18.
