It includes a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) detailing project activities and durations, and a System Vision Statement that defines the purpose and product overview of the proposed software. A stakeholder analysis identifies key stakeholders, their roles, responsibilities, and influence on the project. The report further explores elicitation techniques used to gather requirements, prioritizes user stories, and outlines key use cases for the software, such as login, making calls, viewing sales leads, closing quotations, and generating reports.
