Purpose
Establish and maintain requirements management infrastructure -- baselining, version control, attribute tracking, and status monitoring. This is the operational backbone that keeps requirements organized throughout the project lifecycle.
This is not about developing requirements. It is about managing them after they are developed -- tracking their status, controlling changes, measuring progress, and maintaining the investment in requirements work.
Key Concepts
Requirements Management Activities
| Activity | What It Does | When |
|---|---|---|
| Baselining | Freezes a reviewed set of requirements as the agreed starting point | After validation |
| Version Control | Tracks changes to individual requirements over time | Continuous |
| Attribute Tracking | Maintains metadata for each requirement (status, priority, source, etc.) | Continuous |
| Status Monitoring | Tracks requirements through their lifecycle statuses | Each sprint/milestone |
| Change Control | Evaluates and approves/rejects proposed changes | When changes arise |
| Traceability | Maintains links between requirements and other artifacts | Continuous |
