The BOA is focused on supporting delivery in their squad or project by clarifying requirements, removing obstacles and facilitating workflow and helps ensure the promised outcomes are delivered. They are a blend of business analyst, scrum master, project manager, document writer and cat herder. They are not just an old school business analyst that simply acts as a middleman creating large requirements documents. They are also not purely a hands-off scrum master that only facilitates decisions but has no skin in the game. Likewise, they are not just a single dimensioned project manager focused only on go-live and not value delivery afterwards.  They are pragmatic leaders that understand the business strategy and our strategic intent and help ensure the squad is able to deliver the maximum business value possible. They are great communicators and work as bridges between the product owner, project managers, stakeholders and the squad. They facilitate the squad planning and retrospectives to ensure the squad is delivering reliably and is constantly improving. The squad does not report to them, and they must be the champions of building a self-managing team and not creating a single point of failure in themselves.
