Deliver complex technologies and products – FAST

Building Software is Complex

Building software involves collaboration among multiple stakeholders.  Where there are multiple stakeholders, there is churn, miscommunication, omitted details and errors. Some of the software products today end up having thousands of requirements and millions of lines of code. The complexity is not the exception anymore, it is the norm.   

%

of companies use disconnected tools like spreadsheets and documents to manage requirements

%

of projects miss business objectives due to low requirements maturity

%

of organizations do NOT have the necessary requirements resources
