Agile and requirements management aren't exactly a match made in heaven. But, in many industries, there is a practical reality that mandates some successful marriage between true requirements management and Agile. If you are writing surveillances for regulating Wall Street or building the software for a pacemaker or the automated brake system for cars that have to meet standards in different countries, you have to make them work together.
In these cases, you will want to examine three areas to ensure that you can successfully implement requirements management and still operate in a “SAFe” way.
First, what is your motivation for deciding to do more sophisticated requirements management? Is it purely for compliance or auditability reasons? Or is reusability a big driver?
Second, what other, non-requirements management tools will be involved in the extended flow necessary to accomplish your final goal? And what role will these tools play?
Finally, what specific information will be needed by the tools and for what reason?
This webinar examines these three areas and provide guidance to aid in your implementation of SAFe with requirements management.
