Practice
The requirements list is the start of the content of any business project. It is also the document that the project team will check during the wrap-up of each project phase as the project moves towards its conclusion. In each phase, the professional products present a more detailed level of requirement fulfilment. This iterative process makes it one of the most valued stepping stones of any engineering project.
