Requirements
Elicitation and Management: Good Practices |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
"I am quite familiar with tools and methodologies to gather application requirements. I appreciate the importance of adhering to the project processes while gathering requirements and managing changes. But the real problem is in implementation! In spite of my good efforts, there are requirements errors like incorrect facts, omissions, ambiguity, inconsistency etc. It is very difficult to get sign-off on requirements and change requests from my customer. They are unwilling to pay for genuine changes even. This is leading to scope creep, cost overrun and customer dissatisfaction…." |

About the workshop During requirements gathering, a lot of effort goes into getting the requirements right, rather than obtaining right requirements. This happens since the methodologies, processes and tools that we follow are too much skewed towards engineering aspects of requirements analysis and design. This bias makes one think that good processes result in good requirements. This potentially undermines the importance of managing the customer facing aspects like stake holder interests, project constraints, people issues etc. The role of Requirements Management (RM) is trivialized to managing changes and version control while it is supposed to start right from requirements elicitation stage itself.
Of course, these customer facing aspects are quite dynamic and vary from project to project. They give rise to many challenges in eliciting good requirements and managing the change requests. These challenges can be well addressed, through efficient stake holder management and customization of requirements gathering approach, elicitation techniques and negotiating the changes based on the dynamic need of the project.
This workshop on Requirements Elicitation and Management focuses on experiential learning facilitated by a highly experienced team that shares the dynamics of requirements management and the good practices followed. The workshop offers an opportunity to share your specific issues and learn from the collective experience of the trainers.
