A city mobility app exposes an API that a regional transit partner will consume. The partner sits outside the city org chart. How should the BA classify that partner?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
If another agency rides your API, they care about your project—even if HR doesn’t list them. External partners still go on the stakeholder map for a municipal mobility build.
Full Explanation
Stakeholders include parties who can affect or be affected by the initiative, not only people on the internal org chart. External partners that consume interfaces influence requirements, SLAs, and release timing. Identifying partner ecosystems prevents late integration surprises.
