We provide facilitators and consultants who have a minimum of 10 years experience in Business and Requirements Analysis. This experience allowed us to successfully complete hundreds of Business Requirement, Business Process, and Business Information Usage projects. Our program combines a fast start with ongoing project mentoring to those organizations who wish to do the bulk of implementation work themselves. This yields an optimal combination of lower-cost development, with our pragmatic processes to ensure speed, and experienced BA guidance.

 

Our facilitation/consulting teams align software requirements with business needs. We offer a comprehensive, systemic approach to Business and Requirements Analysis.

 

 

Business Requirements Determination

Workflow Analysis

 
    Workflow analysts, process engineers, and subject matter experts create detailed workflow diagrams and procedures with recommended technology solutions to meet organizational goals. The deliverables can be used immediately in manual operations and may form the basis for requirement definition of automated solutions.  
 

Information Usage Analysis

 
    Data analysts identify business data entities, relationships, and attributes with the appropriate metadata based on the expertise of business specialists. These definitions should span application boundaries and organizational units. The primary deliverable will be an entity-relationship diagram with all critical attributes assigned to entities.  
 

Chunking

 
    Needed to refine business goals, outcomes, and deliverables at a level of detail that requires consensus amongst business stakeholders. Delivers preliminary requirements definition document with prioritized, complete sentence requirements that meet our criteria for effective business requirements (this is a repeat of the index page)  
 

Test Case Identification

 
    Subject matter experts, quality engineers, business / systems analysts, and the appropriate levels of management develop risk-focused test plans to evaluate the selected solution. The test plans should be available before testing activities start.  

 

 

 

 

 

We offer JAD facilitation teams that have extensive experience in helping people think outside-the-box.

Our teams help your group understand and achieve consensus on the critical business requirements before design decisions are made.

We promote cross-functional sharing and foster better understanding of other people's problems and concerns.

The documented results of each activity are the building blocks the group needs to create future deliverables.

 
 
To achieve this, each team consists of two people, a facilitator
and a session analyst. Each needs specific, complimentary skills.
