Translating Stakeholder Vision into Actionable IT Specifications
Business Requirements, Stakeholder Requirements, Epics, and User Stories define business needs in business terminology that all involved parties can understand, but the devil lies in the detail. Solution Providers (i.e., those responsible for building, buying, assembling, or configuring an IT application) need to know what the application will do, what data it will deal with, and what additional qualities it requires to satisfy the business needs. In other words, they need Functional and Non-functional (aka Solution) Requirements at a level of detail that most subject matter experts can only provide when prompted and led.
What You Will Learn
In this course, you will learn simple and repeatable techniques for extracting solution-level specifications from requirements and user stories. The presented techniques will help you identify specific functions the solution needs, data it requires, and data it produces. You will also discover hidden, non-functional needs (e.g., performance, usability, reliability, etc.) related to the functions.
Accelerate Your Team's Productivity with AI Assistance
In our newest edition, the course introduces the exciting new AI Writing Assistant Jasper which helps teams decompose requirements or user stories into functional and data elements with greater speed and accuracy than ever before! Get ready to unlock the power of AI-assisted requirements decomposition with the functional and non-functional requirements course. Join us today and maximize your team's productivity!
Software Specifications Done Right: Lessons from Worldwide IT Initiatives
My co-author, Angela, and I have used these techniques on hundreds of IT projects around the globe and we know the value each provides. Using these approaches will improve your ability to identify and document requirements at the level of detail that solution providers (vendors or developers) need to deliver the right technology for their organization.
Aligning Business Needs with Technical Implementation
The presented techniques will work on any set of well-expressed requirement statements or user stories.
Regardless of your job title or role, if you are involved in defining future business solutions, this course will help you communicate your business needs to solution providers. It will reduce or eliminate misunderstandings that undermine IT’s ability to deliver the right digital solutions for your business.
How to get the most out of this course?
To maximize the learning effect, you will have optional assignments to assess your understanding of each presented technique. They do not “test” your knowledge in the conventional sense. Their purpose is to demonstrate the use of the technique more real-life than our explanations can supply. We hope you enjoy them and that they make it easier for you to apply the techniques in real life.
