"I became engaged in good requirements practices more than 10 years ago. I believe every organization seeking to deliver 'effective' software to their clients should develop a clear and concise set of principles and practices that guide their efforts toward understanding the desire and the needs of those clients. Both traditional and Agile development methods will benefit by these practices and techniques. Continuous alignment to these practices helps develop people skills, broaden understanding of business needs and promotes successful project results." |
