When does this service make sense?

	Your project schedule provides little time with stakeholders
	The proposed initiative impacts many different business users with different processing and regulatory constraints
	There is an aggressive project timeline
	A Senior Business Analyst leader is not a part of the project team
	An Agile approach is being used and you need a base of requirements to ensure iterations are well-focused
