About the Webinar:
Ryma's webinar presented May 19th at noon ET by Harry Gilbert. This webinar presented a good balance between stressing the business basis for requirements, and an approach to estimating what it will take to obtain them in a product initiative. 

Considering the three levels of requirements:

 

  • Business Requirements - "Why the project is being undertaken."
  • User Requirements - "What users will be able to do with the product."
  • Engineering Requirements - "What engineers need to develop."

 

success is going to be about getting the upstream business requirements right, and then ensuring logical flow between downstream activities.

Harry will review the three phases of his requirements determination estimating process

 

  1. Understanding the purpose, context, and rationale of the overall project
  2. Defining the scope and complexity of the project
  3. Defining resources and schedule for the requirements determination portion of the project

 

Other topics covered in context of business requirements will be sales process, requirement decomposition, relationships, estimation, prioritization, project charters, and scope documents.
