  1. Requirements Management Program Functions R-9 Michael deLamare

  2. Need for Requirements Management • Reliance on the intelligent informed individual (People over Process) • Staff Turnover and long projects • Many requirements from multiple stakeholders that staff are expected to know • Contract, Laws, regulations, interfacing facilities, etc. • Easily exceed 10,000 • Requirements are not implemented in design • They do not systematically flow down to design or to suppliers. • Requirements changes are not well understood prior to approval • Leads to unanticipated schedule delays and unexpected cost growth. • Requirements are incomplete, unclear and subject to widely varying interpretations. • Unable to justify requirements readily • Difficulty verifying requirements were met.

  3. Important Considerations for Establishing a Program • Learn from Industry • ISO 29148, ISO 15288, etc. • Recognize that RM is an enterprise process • not just bookkeeping • Must be intertwined with system development processes • Key Systems Engineering concepts are needed • Clear roles, responsibilities accountabilities & authorities • Process over tools

  4. Arriving at Recommendations Best Practices Recommendations Voice of the Customer Project Process Design Project Gaps and Issues Process Failure Modes

  5. Key Concept: Document Hierarchy

  6. Key Concept: “V” Model Plant/Facility Requirements Plant/Facility Validation System/ Structure Requirements System/ Structure Verification Component Requirements Component Verification

  7. Key Concept: Technical Requirement Areas These technical requirements areas need to be recognized when developing requirements

  8. High Ranked Program Needs • Baseline Requirements • Responsible requirement owners • Interpretive authority • Requirements validation • Two-way traceability down to the appropriate level • Enable change impact analysis • Protect assumptions/requirements • Support Procurement • Support Verification

  9. Requirements Management Process • RM Functions • Identify and Document • Analyze and Allocate • Control Change • Verify Compliance • Oversight Inputs Outputs • Contract • Client Specifications • Operational Concepts • Laws/Regs • Permits • Etc. • Managed RqmtsBaseline • Validated • Traceable • Verified Rqmts • Metrics These are a proposed set of RM Functions

  10. Requirements Management Functions These Functions establish and maintain a Project Requirements Baseline • Identification and Documentation • Identify/Elicit Requirements • Document Requirements • Analysis and Allocation • Analyze Requirements • Validate Requirements • Allocate Requirements • Trace Requirements • Document Analysis and Allocation • Change Control • Control Change • Verification • Verify Compliance • Process Oversight • Organize Requirements • Balance and Integrate Requirements • Manage Process
