Guidelines: Supplementary
Specifications - Informal Representation
The following are some recommendations and options for informally representing
Supplementary Specifications.
Recommendation: Use a Requirements Management Tool, Database or Spreadsheet
Even in a small project, a requirements management tool, such as Rational®
RequisitePro®, a database, or a spreadsheet, are recommended for prioritizing
and managing requirements. If stakeholders are comfortable with accessing
requirements directly from the tool, or with accessing a report automatically
generated from the tool, then no separate document is required.
Option: Include as Part of the Vision Document
If there are stakeholders that prefer a document, consider including
supplementary requirements in the Vision document. The master can still
be in some kind of tool, as described previously, and the Vision would
then contain a report from the tool, or a table cut and paste from a spreadsheet.
See the Vision
Template.
