The Standard does not include information on the knowledge areas defined in the BABOK Guide. For comprehensive details on these knowledge areas, please refer to the BABOK Guide.

Instead, the Standard focuses on providing practical, task-level guidance for business analysis activities. These tasks can be referenced and implemented in the order that best suits the needs of business analysis professionals and stakeholders. By concentrating on tasks, the Standard aims to offer actionable and practical instructions that directly support business analysis professionals in their daily responsibilities.
