Analyzing business
requirements and Constraints
Benefits. This is the first process that:
- Confirms structural attributes of software
(quality-"ilities":
functionality, usability, reliability, supportability,
etc.) with the user
- Places the "User Concerns List" here in the process to capture user concerns
earlier rather than later
- Applies a unique RPIPR model for interviewing…
First build trust…then, gather requirements: Rapport, Process, Interview, Process, Rapport
- Allows the BA to understand true needs to avoid biasing
needs with technology
The deliverable
and essential tools of this crucial step in requirements gathering including
those as shown in the following chart, lay the foundation for
the success or failure of project plans.
"Without a method [like
this], the user giveth and the developer taketh away."
- Steve Bender

The High Quality Requirements Model is a six step requirements gathering process useful for end users, business
analysts, and developers. By means of its structure, it
automatically assures mission-based, needs-based
requirements
that are not solutions-driven.
The BA as facilitator. What is unique about this WEBinar is that it will explain
a process that
emphasizes the role of the BA as a facilitator.
