Improving RE decision-making via business-driven long-term view of software product's future development steps
Laura Lehtola · 2004
Requirements documents are not enough in managing the development of software products for wide markets. Development projects have become shorter and involve many stakeholders within and outside the company. Software companies are missing the explicit links between business decisions and lower-level decision-making concerning a product's future development steps. We aim to develop practices in forming a high-level and long-term view of software products' future development steps by combining knowledge from different stakeholder groups within the company. The ultimate goal of our work is to find if this kind of view can be used as a basis of value-based decision-making in requirements engineering.
