The role of tech writers when working with business/systems analysts

[Laura_D_Mcdonald -at- Keane -dot- Com]

What is the relationship of tech writers to business or systems analysts in
your organization? I'm working with a client that uses all three, and it
seems like technical writers could do many of the same tasks that analysts
do. Recently, someone in the organization who was searching for an analyst
said that there was no such thing as an analyst anymore; that technical
writers with specialized skills fulfilled these roles now. I found that
interesting because many of the systems analysts that I have known
preferred to do programming, not documentation.
Thanks!
