The Requirements Life Cycle
Questions addressed by a Requirements Life Cycle Framework:
-
​Where are we in the transformation process?
-
Do we agree on what we need before we figure out how to fix it?
-
Are we developing the right solution for the problem / opportunity we need to address?
-
How do we communicate progress to our stakeholders?
What is a Requirements Lifecycle?
Business transformations come in many shapes and sizes. Each transformation effort may require one or many projects to move an organization from point A to point B.
​
Most business transformations require at least some change to supporting business technologies typically using an incremental or agile approach to guide each system change.
​
Regardless of the type of change you make; all transformations have one thing in common - requirements. And requirements have a lifecycle. They are created, linked, updated, satisfied and (hopefully) stored for future use.
​
Because businesses are constantly transforming - often with more than one transformation occurring at the same time, a framework becomes a critical tool to manage the requirements lifecycle effectively.
