It is widely accepted that proper requirements management provides
a better quality of solution. Yet, in many companies requirements
management is not practiced, and even when it is, the quality of
the requirements themselves is often poor. It is not uncommon for
badly written requirements specifications to be misunderstood, or
even largely ignored by systems analysts and developers, with disastrous
consequences for projects.
The talk will present an overview of effective requirements management,
and highlight common weaknesses and pitfalls that exist in the requirements
process. Key concepts that underpin effective requirements, such
as traceability, granularity and discreteness will be discussed.
Steve will describe the 'perfectly-specified requirement' and provide
an understanding of a few critical things that need to be in place
if we are to extract full value from our requirements efforts.

In this session, we'll offer you practical ways to avoid high-risk
& failing projects using 'Structured Requirements'.
You will get clear control of your application development lifecycle
through tangible, measurable and deliverable requirements. We'll
see how Optimal Trace, the latest addition to the Compuware product
family can help facilitate this in a practical and easy to deploy
way.
Ton will demonstrate how to :
- Capture and structure business requirements
- Collaborate and communicate requirements across teams
- Create full traceability across the project life cycle
- Establish common shared understanding of requirements
