MIS604: Requirement Engineering Report - ABC Company Application

This report examines the application of requirement engineering within the context of the ABC Company, a startup developing an on-demand trades and services application. It emphasizes the crucial role of requirement engineering in the Software Development Lifecycle, highlighting its importance in translating user needs into formal specifications and minimizing software errors. The report provides an overview of requirement engineering procedures, including elicitation, specification, validation, verification, and management. It details business requirements such as the need for a new sales system and customer contact entry. Functional requirements encompass on-demand trades, job posting, tradesperson profiles, secure payments, and secure logins. Non-functional requirements address security through encryption and real-time monitoring, scalability through data updates, and availability through open-source access. The report concludes by underscoring the significance of these requirements in the application's development and references relevant literature.

INTRODUCTION
The report discuses about an application of the ABC
Company. The ABC Company is a start up company and
they are developing an application that offers on demand
trades and services of repairperson to the customers. The
company thinks that the application will provide them with
high profits and revenues. The report focuses on the
importance of the requirements engineering and the
implications of the requirements engineering. The report
focuses on the overview of the requirements engineering
and the requirement elicitation for the application that is
proposed. The report provides an overview of the two
business requirements and the functional and the non-
functional requirements of the application.

IMPORTANCE OF
REQUIREMENT ENGINEERING
 The requirement engineering is the
most essential stage of the Software
Development Lifecycle
 This stage is utilised in order to
translate the incomplete needs of the
users of the software into complete and
formal specifications.
 It is very important in order to create
effective software and in minimizing the
errors in the software

IMPLICATIONS OF
REQUIREMENT ENGINEERING
 The requirement engineering is very
important for the development of the
application for the ABC Company
 The ABC Company must know the
requirements of the customers so that
they can develop the applications user
friendly

PROCEDURES OF
REQUIREMENT ENGINEERING
 Requirement elicitation
 Requirement specification
 Requirements Validation and Verification
 Requirements Management

REQUIREMENT
ELICITATION
The procedures of the requirement
elicitation include
 Brainstorming
 FAST
 Quality Function Deployment
 Delphi method

BUSINESS REQUIREMENTS
 A new sales system is required in the
company so that they can know the
sales of the ABC Company
 The ABC Company requires the data to
be consistent
 The company need a screen in order to
enter the contacts of the customers.

FUNCTIONAL
REQUIREMENTS
 The application will provide on-demand
trades and services of handyman
 The customers can post jobs on the
application
 For the tradesperson, they can put the
profile on the application
 Payment can be made securely through
the application
 The login will be done with the right
login credentials.

NON-FUNCTIONAL
REQUIREMENTS
 Security: the security of the application
will be made proper with the help of
encryption techniques and real time
security monitoring and protection will be
done.
 Scalability: The application can be made
scalable by providing fresh data to the
application
 Availability: The application should be
made available to everyone that is it
should be made open source to the
customers of the company

CONCLUSION
The report concludes with the
requirement engineering that is required
in order to develop the application for
the ABC Company. The requirements are
very important and as it helps to reduce
the errors during the development of
the application. The procedures of the
requirement engineering are provided in
the report and it is very important for
the development of the application for
the ABC Company.
