Explanation

When discovery reveals that another team has a related near-term need, the BA should broaden discovery to include that team rather than proceeding in silos. Including the operations team now allows the BA to identify shared requirements, avoid redundant work, and plan a more cohesive solution. Proceeding with only the sales team (A) risks building something that will need to be reworked later. Starting a separate operations project immediately (B) is premature - requirements haven't been gathered yet.
