Explanation

Identifying assumptions is a key part ofrisk management, as assumptionscan lead to uncertainties that need to be validated or mitigated. BABOK® Guide (Chapter 10.37 - Risk Analysis and Management)states that BAs mustidentify and assess assumptions to determine their impact on project success.
