Analysis of Preliminary Requirements
(tT1)
To be performed by
Designated project manager
and designated personnel ,
possibly additional experts
from the specialist area or technical division.
Goals
The preliminary requirements must be prepared to a level
which allows a solution to be outlined and a decision
made about execution. The results of this activity must
be documented in the specification of proposed solution.
Execution
The preliminary requirements first need to be examined -
are all the requirements complete and what still needs to
be added in order to be able to derive conclusions about
the approximate scope of the project? - Are the
requirements sufficiently detailed?
Where it is expedient and feasible, discussions should
be held with the client (possibly also with end customers
or users) in order to resolve any outstanding points and
eliminate any major areas of uncertainty.
In a second stage, the primary solution path (possibly
with alternatives) must be drawn up.
Notes
The preliminary requirements should only be analyzed
to the extent necessary to reach a decision on whether to
conduct the project (extensive analyses should be
conducted within the scope of a project - the
specification of proposed solution is not to be regarded
as a solution study).
