SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR EVALUATING A REQUIREMENTS PROCESS AND PROJECT RISK-REQUIREMENTS MANAGEMENT METHODOLOGY

摘要

A system, method and computer program product for requirements management. Particularly, a requirements management scheme performs at least the following functions: 1) it guides a team through the requirements process and provides a structure for collecting “requests”. By using the scheme, team members are prompted to think about and record relevant information that will help clarify and complete requests; and, 2) the scheme allows users to use the attributes throughout the development process to identify risk and make improvements to their process. Many of these attributes can be refined during the development phase or even later. Besides helping team members achieve continuous improvement in their requirements process by providing a set of data and metrics for collection and assessment, the scheme enables an organization to effectively manage their requirements as well as manage changes to those requirements.
