An operational assessment is an input that is required to perform the assessment of enterprise limitations. An operational assessment is a technique that evaluates the current state of the business operations and identifies the gaps, issues, and opportunities for improvement. An operational assessment can help to determine how the solution will affect the existing business processes, policies, procedures, roles, and responsibilities, and how these factors may limit the value realization of the solution. An operational assessment can also help to identify the dependencies, assumptions, constraints, risks, and issues that may arise from the implementation of the solution and how they can be addressed or mitigated.
The other options are not inputs for the assessment of enterprise limitations, but rather outputs or outcomes of the task. Potential value is the expected benefit that the solution will provide to the enterprise and the stakeholders, and it is determined by comparing the current state and the future state of the enterprise. Solution performance analysis is a technique that measures and evaluates the actual performance of the solution against the expected performance and the business objectives. Organizational structure is the arrangement of the roles, responsibilities, and relationships within the enterprise, and it may be affected or changed by the solution.
