Article Rating (1555 Views) (0 Comments)
First, I'm a project focused software developer, team lead, designer, architect, jack of all trades, who has been on projects that have used various methodologies over the years, including of late some agile projects. I'm not a big blog reader, or a big blogger, but like most people I have an opinion on things, and for some reason that opinio...

» Agile Analysis
Article Rating (631 Views) (0 Comments)
Agile software developers, just like traditional software developers, perform analysis activities. Unlike traditional developers, agilists approach analysis in a highly collaborative manner and do so on a just-in-time (JIT) basis. Analysis is so important to us we do it every single day. In this article, I discuss: What is analysis? Ret...

» Requirements Prioritization Introduction
Article Rating (1587 Views) (0 Comments)
Once a set of security requirements has been identified, it is often the case that they need to be prioritized. Due to time and budget constraints, it is often difficult to implement all the requirements that have been elicited for a system. It may also be the case that security requirements are implemented in stages, and prioritization can help to...

My friends and colleagues often ask me how I am able to produce so much in so little time.  Although I am flattered by such compliments, it's really not much of a secret which I attribute to the following areas (in no particular order):... Author: Tim Bryce

» Business Analysts Should be Corporate Assets
Article Rating (914 Views) (0 Comments)
A project manager's first task after being appointed to an IT development is to seek out a business analyst to gather requirements. After that, it's on to the development and then the implementation. It's the way it's done. It's the way it's always been done. But business analysts are not used optimally if they are only used to "gather" require...

You can see this technique by looking in the category Online Game on the blog. Then I had a survey to elicit information. You can see that survey by looking in the category Survey on the blog. Today I am g...

» Requirements for Outsourcing
Article Rating (713 Views) (0 Comments)
Outsourcing differs from other development because there is bound to be a contractual relationship, probably a geographic distance, a different sense of loyalty, language misunderstandings, cultural differences, reluctance to speak up to the client – and many other associated problems. Good requirements are always a problem, but outsourcing increas...

» IT Pays a Price for Poor Requirements Practices
Article Rating (849 Views) (0 Comments)
IAG Consulting’s new Business Analysis Benchmark makes one thing clear: almost 70 percent of companies surveyed set themselves up for both failure and significantly higher cost in their use of poor requirements practices. That failure came at a significant cost: the average $3 million project cost companies using poor requirements practices an aver...
