Lean Business Analysis
is focused on increasing efficiency by making incremental improvements to software and capturing customer feedback early and often. This minimizes waste in the product development cycle. Lean Business Analysis prioritizes experimentation over elaborate planning, and celebrates continuous, incremental improvement. It eliminates much of the bureaucracy that accompanied traditional Business Analysis.

How Does It Work?
Build teams
Build cross-functional, self-motivating teams by fostering a team culture that includes prompt feedback. Always communicate openly and respectfully with your team.
Determine MVP
Determine a minimum viable product (MVP). This is a stripped-down version of a product, software, or website that early adopters can test.
Apply lean thinking
Apply Agile and Lean thinking to your software development process as well as to detailed requirements discovery, analysis, and acceptance testing.
Get feedback
Release the MVP and get feedback from your customers. Improve the product. Embrace change. Repeat the process.

The process of defining IT requirements is evolving rapidly. Backlogs replace requirements definition documents. User Stories, Epics and Features replace requirement statements. Scenarios and Examples replace test cases. The timing of business analysis activities is shifting like sand.
Lean and Agile software development philosophies are a way of developing and delivering valuable working software to the business. They are NOT a way to identify business needs or stakeholder requirements.
