A business analyst (BA) is determining the current state as part of a new project.

 An internal enterprise asset that the BA must include in the analysis of the current state is the organizational structure. The organizational structure is the way that the enterprise is arranged and governed, including its roles, responsibilities, reporting relationships, and authority levels. The organizational structure influences the business processes, culture, communication, and decision-making of the enterprise. The BA should include the organizational structure in the analysis of the current state to understand the existing capabilities, constraints, and opportunities of the enterprise, as well as to identify the stakeholders and their needs, expectations, and influence.
