In this two hour webinar, we will provide you with a framework to measure and manage improvement in your organization’s Requirements Practice as well as an outline and specific strategies to setup a formal transformation program.
This session will help any champion, sponsor, manager or stakeholder implement positive changes in the area of requirements and business analysis (including implementing agile or lean practices, implementing ALM or requirements authoring, modeling or management tools, integrating a requirements process with your PMP or SDLC or ALM, designing a Business Analyst development program, or setting up a Requirements Center of Excellence, Business Analysis Competency Center or Requirements Management Office.) If you are in any way involved in any of these initiatives, this may be the best two hours you could spend.
The tips and tactics will cover how to address all the essential areas necessary to achieve true results. As we will discuss, any successful transformation program must address the six key areas of Requirements Management Maturity:
-
Process standardization and improvement
-
Integration of best practices and techniques
-
Technology integration
-
Competent staff resources
-
Infrastructure and organizational support
-
Quality deliverables yielding improved results
During this intensive and fast paced session, you will hear hard hitting statistics on the benefits of maturing your requirements management capabilities (that you can use to help build a business case for your own improvement initiatives.)
We will give you dozens of key success factors and strategies for championing change throughout your organization's business analysis and requirements management groups.
And we will take you step by step, through the essential stages of a transformation program geared to improve any organization's requirements practice.
Whether you have direct responsibility for your organization's Business Analysis and Requirements Practice, or you are an advocate, a champion or a critical team member, you will undoubtedly take away ideas you can put to use to help improve your organization's level of requirements management maturity.
