Many big books on software requirements and business analysis recommend dozens and dozens of practices. They’re all useful in appropriate situations, but it’s daunting to try to remember—let alone implement—the whole set consistently.

However, every project should perform 20 core requirements activities. These lay a solid foundation for success and help teams efficiently and effectively elicit, analyze, specify, validate, and manage their requirements. These practices are valuable for both traditional and agile projects, regardless of the kind of product you’re building.

This presentation identifies those 20 core practices and drills down into several of them. They can help project and product teams understand the business problem, engage the right participants, articulate effective solutions, communicate information among stakeholders, implement the right functionality in the right sequence, and adapt to change.

Do you have to perform all 20 of these on your project? Maybe not, but you’ll feel less pain and get better results if you do.

Presenter: Karl E. Wiegers (LinkedIn profile) Principal Consultant Process Impact has provided training and consulting services worldwide on many aspects of software development, management and process improvement.

Karl is the author of many books including:

• Software Requirements 2
• Practical Project Initiation: A Handbook with Tools (Best Practices)

Sustainability has become a key parameter for organizations and this means that projects and operations have to be planned and implemented with this objective.

At the project level it may be difficult to bring in sustainability initiatives because often times the scope of the project is already determined or it is contractual.

To get a sustainability perspective one has to consider it beyond a project outcome and further this needs to be addressed by senior management. Therefore, an organizational level approach would be more appropriate.

This is where the Organizational Project Management or OPM comes in.

This approach would looks at outcomes not just at project but also at program level. It considers portfolio management to effectively implement the strategy of the organization.

In this webinar Raju Rao (LinkedIn profile)  will explore the use of OPM for Sustainability. Examples / Case Studies will be presented.
