The BA Kit

Product history

Redvespa Consultants (Redvespa) believes that great business analysis needs creative thinking – it’s an art form, as well as a crucial component of effective organisations.

• Redvespa’s passion for the discipline led to initiating a project in late 2007, to reconcile business analysis practices and divergent project management methodologies, within one flexible framework.
• A prototype system was developed that aligned the International Institute of Business Analysis (IIBA) Body of Knowledge and a client’s System Development Life Cycle (SDLC).
• The product was launched in 2008, but support of the system in the client’s environment led to interest in developing a hosted model available via a web browser.

• A first generation cloud-based product was released in September 2009 and saw clients quickly come on board. The system delivered standardised business analysis tasks, templates, worked examples and techniques displayed in the context of the clients' project management methodologies.  It also provided oversight of business analysis assignments within the organisations, and visibility of resource activities.
• Since then, Redvespa’s in-house Development Team has worked alongside clients to extend the application platform into the robust organising, tracking and governing product seen today.
