The sponsor is typically the stakeholder who has the authority and responsibility to review and approve requirements. While the business analyst facilitates the elicitation and documentation of requirements, it is ultimately the sponsor who ensures alignment with business needs and grants formal approval. This approval validates that the documented requirements are complete, aligned with the project's objectives, and ready for implementation. The sponsor's responsibilities include: Endorsing the project's business case Approving finalized requirements Ensuring funding and organizational support
