In Africa, we have lots of projects and products worth huge amounts of money that are imported and some projects executed which do not necessarily conform with the immediate need of the people in the locality where they are sited or put in use. As a result such projects, products or services do not achieve their purpose of procurement or execution. Reason being that they are not suitable to the end-users/ consumers. The reason for such inefficiencies is that there was little or no prior thorough understudy of how best to meet the requirement of the end-users with respect to their environment where they are located before developing such products or carrying out such projects. For such occurrences to be curbed, the requirement of the stakeholders involved in the utility of the product has to be thoroughly considered so as to design a software or product model that will form a template for producing the right product that will meet the desired needs of the stakeholders or end –users correctly. This is the essence of requirement engineering in product development or project execution tailored to meet the need of the people they are meant for. Before carrying out product development, there should be inputs of professionals from different fields whose professional expertise is needful in developing a working template or model for the product in view.
