Identify – as we take on this project, what type of organizational and domain knowledge do you need to be successful as a BA for this project?

As business analysts, it is expected we have deep knowledge not only in BA tools, techniques, skills and competencies but also in the organization and the domain work of the business/project. As a consultant, I often find myself in the situation where I can transfer some knowledge from one domain area to another, but there are still some gaps that I am responsible to fill (this is also very true in the PM space). Identify – as we take on this project, what type of organizational and domain knowledge do you need to be successful as a BA for this project? What are the biggest knowledge gaps?

Provide references or attach the source used to close the gap. From the recommendations given, what will you do in the next week to continue to close the knowledge gap?
