If client needs are vague, uninformed, or unstated, the needs assessment will provide a structured process to clarify what stakeholders seek.<\/p><p>Often, there are conflicting needs or time and budget constraints that demand prioritization. DCA works with clients to establish priorities and select tradeoffs and thus produce a balanced plan of action. Ultimately, DCA communicates with stakeholders to demonstrate that their individual views and the views of the organization have been embodied in the going-forward application
