Making Requirements Flow:
Harmonizing Agile development & sound requirements practices

As the union of hardware and software bestows upon the world new innovations that amaze and awe the buying public, the builders behind these creations try to keep the complexity of the products and the processes involved from driving them crazy.

Hardware and software don’t play well with each other without a lot of encouragement, and developers are under constant pressure to build and iterate faster.

In response, many software teams look to Agile development as a better way to organize work, manage uncertainty and maintain quality.

In this webinar, Derwyn Harris, and Dave West, Tasktop chief product officer, provide actionable guidance to organizations that need to bridge the gap between formal requirements practices and Agile software development.

Presenters:

Derwyn Harris, (LinkedIn profile) Solutions Architect and Co-Founder at Jama Software

Dave West, (LinkedIn profile) Chief Product Officer, Tasktop Technologies and Research Director, Forrester Research, Inc.
