product accurately for their needs.

Subject Matter Expert - A key part
of the role is being a subject matter expert for the CES product. The subject
matter expert is the primary go-to resource for any questions or issues related
to the product. The SME will have the understanding, knowledge and skill to
speak definitively on a rule and provide information on how it works, how it is
configured, and what its capabilities and limitations are. The primary way of

with the software. The expectation is that the Business Analyst can create and
maintain custom rules, and answer any questions regarding the rules engine or
rules in the product. In addition, the business analyst will need to have
working knowledge of and be able to speak to the rules features available in
various versions of the product. Lab environments are available for this
hands-on work, and can be leveraged for most versions of the product.

Documentation - Another key part of the role of Business Analyst is the
creation of rule requirements. The Business Analyst should be able to take a
high-level business policy statement and create clear, understandable and unambiguous
requirements and obtain sign-off from appropriate stakeholders. Business
Analyst training can be provided to help build the skills of requirements
creation. The creation and maintenance of these requirements are critical to
ensure that the rule being built is working as required and will provide the
business value anticipated by the customer. As a Business Analyst, it is

the correct repositories, so that it may be accessed by others,
internally.
