With this approach, which has proven itself in practice, you can achieve the following with us

  • design stepwise your requirements on all abstraction levels
  • align to regulatory, functional and quality requirements
  • verify the requirements by deriving examples from test cases and create scenarios
  • ensure traceability of all requirements through the entire life cycle
  • deliver high quality requirements, which are measurable and verifiable 

 

The major pre-requisite to get the right system is the understanding, design and modeling of the business processes and the requirements.

We systematically break down the requirements into hierarchical abstraction levels. The requirements and their related technology are depicted in increasing detail at each level (see diagram).
