Business analysts study the overall business and information needs of an organization in order to develop solutions to business and related technology problems. Business analysts are the liaison between technology staff and management. A business analyst's role is usually undertaken prior to the system design, building, and programming stages of a system’s development process.

Employment Information
Business analysts held about 487,000 jobs in 2004. About 28,000 analysts were self-employed. The greatest concentration of these workers is in the computer systems design industry. Business analysts are also employed by governments, insurance companies, financial institutions, Internet service providers, data processing services firms, and universities.

A large number of business analysts are employed on a temporary or contract basis. For example, a company installing a new computer system may need the services of several analysts just to get the system running. Because not all of the analysts would be needed once the system is functioning, the company might contract for such employees with a consulting firm. Such jobs may last from several months up to 2 years or more. This allows companies to bring in people with the exact skills they need to complete a project, instead of having to spend time and money training or retraining existing workers.
