The October Speaker Series is an important tool in your tool chest! Whether your role includes parts of the BABOK framework and your title is a galaxy away from anything business analysis sounding, or you are hardcore business process management, this is an important event.

The presentation will accomplish two things with a third for good measure. The first two are

• Stop struggling each and every time you start a new requirements project by having a library of requirements available for re-use.
  
• There are many software solutions and assessing and or understanding them can be dizzy at best. Take the time to learn with Tim and Blueprint Software how to assess this genre of software and how the living requirements process and the tools exist to make you more valuable.
  

Here are some of the many names of living requirements

• Living requirements
  
• Evergreen requirements
  
• Product based model
  

Presentation

OBJECTIVE

Event participants will acquire an understanding of

WHAT problems will a living requirements documentation structure address. Event participants will receive ideas on how to document a problem / opportunity analysis with measures and facts to back these assertions up.

WHAT characteristics of a living requirements documentation makes them useful. Event participants will receive ideas to document real business requirements for living requirements documentation that address the specific problems we captured.

DISCUSS high level strategies for creating effective living requirements documentation. Event participants will receive some practical advice regarding what is required for successful deployment. The presentation will direct you to resources. 

IDEAS on WHERE and WHEN you might reasonably use living requirements in your work flow. Event participants will receive ideas on how to work with senior management on the value of investing in the effort to establish them.

This presentation uses the types of output created by Natasha Kordonska's September 2015 Speaker Series presentation.
