Requirements Planning and Project Scoping
Starting a project where the scope is unclear? Is reaching consensus on the project goals and timetable challenging? Are there many stakeholders spanning different operational units?
Just diving in once a project’s approved - the “let’s get started and worry later” approach – can mean unclear requirements, missed project deadlines, over-budget spending and a high risk of becoming just another project failure statistic.
Take two-to-four weeks to clarify your goals and requirements activities, the project participants, and the estimated timetable using the expertise of DEA’s experienced facilitators. You’ll find the time spent will pay off many times over in having a roadmap that everyone can agree to. We can help with scoping an identified project or we can work with you to scope the discovery effort of a business area domain.
What work products can you expect?
- A set of goals and objectives
- A context model that clearly communicates what’s in scope

- A model of the processes that will be touched and will need to examined
- Identified risks and mitigation plan
- A work plan that outlines the activities to be performed, the roles involved, and the kinds of artifacts it makes sense to build
