Welcome to the Presenting Web - part of the Requirements Management Database support site. This area allows you to view static (non-Flash) versions of all of the presentations available on this site.

The Problem

It's no wonder that discussing project requirements can be frustrating. Over 80% of rework is spent correcting requirement defects... 30% of devices ship with 50% or less of the originally specified features... 60-70% of IT project failures result from poor requirements management... And over 50% of software defects are attributable to requirement errors... But now, with the Requirements Management Database™, there is a better way.

The Solution

The Requirements Management Database™ (http://www.reqdb.com) is a collaboration tool to help capture, refine, prioritize, and track the development of a detailed list of product or project requirements in a living document. The output of the Requirements Management Database is typically a Market Requirements Document (MRD), a Product Requirements Document (PRD), and/or a Project Specification.

Tip of the Day

Did you know … this is a multi-user environment for teams?

Answer:

With Word and Excel, only one user can ever update the requirements document – rendering it static and unwieldy. With the Requirements Management Database running in Multi-User Mode, multiple distributed users can simultaneously view, add, edit, filter, and report all of the project requirements.
