Explanation
Process mapping is the technique of documenting the individual steps that users take to complete their work, including each step's sequence, owner, and purpose. In this scenario, the BA is interviewing service agents to identify every step they take in their daily workflow and documenting what each step accomplishes - this is precisely what process mapping produces. It is used to understand the current state ('as-is') and identify opportunities for improvement. Value stream mapping (Option B) is also a process visualization technique but focuses specifically on identifying and eliminating waste to improve flow, with a stronger Lean/Six Sigma orientation. Data modeling (Option C) represents data structure and entity relationships, which is unrelated to this scenario.
