Requirement Engineering

What is requirements engineering?

Requirement engineering, also known as requirements management, is an elementary component of project management in companies. The aim is to ensure that the requirements of customers as well as internal and external stakeholders for the product to be manufactured are met.

What does requirement engineering involve?

Do you know your customers and their requirements? Actively managing requirements means actively reflecting on customers in the project context and assessing their relevance for the project outcome. Managing requirements also means actively engaging with these relevant groups in order to understand and react in a targeted manner.

Requirement engineering begins with the systematic evaluation and selection of relevant customer groups to be addressed for innovation and development projects. However, choosing the right access channel is just as crucial as addressing the target groups themselves, which should reveal both direct and indirect requirements as reliably and completely as possible.

In the concrete and new project environment of innovation and development projects, however, assumptions and presumptions must be replaced by concrete and measurable facts in order to be able to reliably reduce misdevelopment risks.

What are the advantages of the Requirement Engineering workshop?

Participants learn how to systematically elicit, understand and adapt constantly changing needs and requirements in a dynamic environment. After the workshop they can:

• identify relevant customer groups in the project context
• customer needs can be precisely identified and defined
• needs can be condensed and concretised into requirements
• lay the foundations for a stable and reliable requirements management that is critical for success.
