General Information

Software requirements management is a process that includes the identification, documentation, analysis, tracking, requirements prioritization, release management, reaching an agreement on requirements, change management, and notification of the interested parties.

The organization of the requirements management process allows us to provide documentation and requirements control as well as implementation in accordance to the customer’s expectations.

Problems it will solve

  • 01
    Minimizing the risks of defects in new software functionality or its noncompliance with the expectations of the customer;
  • 02
    Cutting the operational costs during the implementation of the new releases or system updates by minimizing the number of change iterations or corrections to the implemented functionality;
  • 03
    Cutting down the time frames for system implementation (time-to-market) or its new functionality by implementing system functionality in accordance to the initial customer requirements;
  • 04
    Cutting down the time frames for the analysis of the effect that changes may have on the current system’s functionality;
  • 05
    Raising the effectiveness of managing business expectations through a more precise release launch;
  • 06
    Raising software quality by implementing centralized requirements storage, managing all changes, and conducting a risk analysis during the implementation of new requirements.

Deliverables
