Building solutions together
We adopt a tried & tested Project Management process to help co-create the best products with you. We have codified this under requirements management and this process consists of several key stages:
- Investigation and Research
We work with you to identify goals, limitations, tools, requirements, processes and user needs.
- Implementability
We determine what requirements and development efforts will be needed.
- Design and Development
We work closely with design and development teams to ensure that all design work supports the ultimate product goals.
- Testing
We ensure that schedule, budget and project scope meets the original requirements.
- Release
Once version one of the product is complete, we collect user feedback, create input for the next product iteration and begin the investigation stage again.
Services
The deliverables of the requirements process are largely dependant on the specifics of any given project. Some of the deliverables you can expect include:
- Stakeholder Analysis
While working with our clients we validate who the sponsor of our engagement is and define what they and the client will use as success measures for the project.
- Current State Analysis
We provide an analysis of the current state of both the business and the product before planning for any improvements.
- Scope Statement
We help to clearly define your business needs and the scope of the solution requirements in order to ensure that we can make fully informed decisions.
- Visual Specifications
We apply specifications provided by the requirements managers to create low-fidelity wireframes, prototypes and workflow diagrams that help both the development and customer teams to fully understand and accurately execute the product features before implementation.
- User Acceptance Test Plans and Demos
Although business owners maintain ownership over the user acceptance testing, our Requirements Managers provide strong support throughout the process. They are responsible for guiding you through the system behavior, helping you identify the most suitable testing scenarios and presenting you and product stakeholders with detailed demonstrations of the projects achievements.
Process
TekWissen Express
TekWissen Express is our in-house end-to-end delivery process, based on the the best industrys standards, of agile development, including Scrum, Kanban, Lean Development, Continuous Delivery and Total Quality Management.
Elaboration phase
Our personal recommendation is to begin all projects with an elaboration phase. Here we work in collaboration with you to produce a detailed description of your product functionality, a clear breakdown of your development costs and a visualization of your user interface all of which ensure that you enter the implementation phase of your software product with fewer associated risks.
Implementation Phase
Our requirements managers also play a key role in the implementation phase. Along with the product owners, they communicate to the development and QA team the products goals, requirements, defined roadmap and the specified scope for its features.
Ultimately, requirements managers act as the liaison between the development team and the customer they solve issues, clarify requirements and implementation details, conduct pre-acceptance testing and demonstrate sessions during the iterative development process.
