WHAT IS THE BUSINESS IMPACT OF SPENDING TIME FIXING THE WAY YOU DO
REQUIREMENTS?
Fix the highest leverage stage in the software development process
The efficient definition of business requirements guides every other aspect
of systems development. The more streamlined this process, the better deployed
a company's resources and the faster its execution in the market.
Statistically, for every $1 million in anticipated spending on development or
application customization, the efficiency of spending could be improved by
approximately 28% for the average organization who has not invested in
improving its processes in the earliest stages of the life cycle. Research from IEE, DoD and others supports the following finding:
- 50% of rework is typically due to requirement errors. Targeting this also
leads to >30% reduction in post roll-out defects.
- 40% reduction in cycle time from inception to delivery for the average project
and a higher rate of early stage termination of projects which were not well
grounded.
- Improvement in scoping and estimation, driving on-time delivery to in excess of
90%
Such systemic change is not an overnight activity, but one that develops over
time through the implementation of changes in the techniques used by the
organization, its processes and program oversight.
