Requirements, Requirements, Requirements...

by Hugo Esperanca | Mar 03, 2005

Those are the three most valuable artefacts of a project. Requirements should drive most (if not all) activities in a project. A project should be architectural centric and requirements driven... We have all heard these clichés before but how exactly does one manage requirements in an iterative process?

How do we make sure that all team members are rowing the same way?

Supporting Iterative Development Through Requirements Management gives a good insight on how effective requirements management can be accomplished in an iterative process - in this case using the Rational unified Process (RUP). Even if you are using another iterative process (like SCRUM or XP) the article should give some good ideas.

If you are not using an iterative process then forget about the article and read "Why should I be using an iterative process" instead.

Compliance using DocRead

DocRead logoDocRead for SharePoint can help you manage policy compliance by:

  • Targeting documents or policies at specific groups of users
  • Allowing a specific amount of time for users to confirm agreement 
  • Sending email reminders when policy compliance is overdue
  • Users self-certify that they have read and fully understood the policy details
  • Securely storing records of confirmed policy acceptance
  • Monitoring the user acceptance of policies via a reporting suite
  • Providing detailed reading reports and statistics
  • Report drill through to show who has not accepted the policy
  • Automatically sending historic compliance tasks and policies to new users when they are added to a group
  • Bringing policy compliance requests immediately to users attention when they log on

DocRead is simple to install and configure. It seamlessly integrates with SharePoint and can be added to any existing SharePoint site.
