Explanation
A business architect operates at the strategic intersection of business and technology, making C (Engage with business leaders) and D (Develop a customer business roadmap) correct - both reflect the role's core focus on understanding executive priorities and translating them into long-term strategic direction.
Why the distractors are wrong:
- A (Respond to RFPs) is typically a sales or solutions architect responsibility, not a business architect's.
- B (Coordinate customer technical proof of concepts) belongs to technical/solutions architects or pre-sales engineers who validate technical feasibility.
- E (Develop bill of materials) is a procurement or solutions architect task tied to specific product configurations.
Memory tip: Think of the business architect as the "boardroom bridge" - they talk to leaders (C) and build roadmaps (D). If an answer sounds too technical or transactional (BoM, PoC, RFP), it belongs to a different role.
