In short, the presentation will demonstrate that comprehensive requirements management is not about the sophistication of the tool used.

This presentation will:

• Review the role of requirements management in supporting the Proof of Concept and Solution Selection processes.
• Explore the benefit and value of combining the requirements management process w/ Proof of Concept for supporting Solution Selection
• Use a spreadsheet matrix designed to support an Enterprise Project Management (EPM) Solution deployment  for illustrative purposes.
