What are requirements?

Requirements are specific objectives that need to be met to complete a project phase. They act as clear, actionable goals for your team.

Why define requirements?

• Clarity: Provides team members with a clear understanding of expectations.

• Focus: Helps teams concentrate on essential goals, boosting efficiency.

• Progress Tracking: Allows for monitoring of achievements against set objectives.
