"Requirements Management Plan Template"

This template enables you to record and define all the project requirements whether they are product or project based. It provides a structured and documented framework that is fundamental to the management of project scope.

This plan defines how project requirements are collected, analyzed, monitored and managed. This document ensures that all requirements are recorded in a structured manner avoiding omissions and provides a tool to ensure the right requirements are available in a timely and appropriate fashion.

Projects are evolving entities and as such changes are inevitable and requirements must be well planned and managed so that these changes appear as seamless as possible to those in the project environment. There are several key documents that are essential to the understanding of a project's requirements and how best to manage them to achieve success. They are:

• The project scope management plan
• The project charter
• The stakeholder register
• The stakeholder management plan

Requirements must be easily testable, traceable and measurable before they can form the necessary project baselines. They must also be consistent and acceptable to its stakeholders. The documentation generated in the collection of requirements must meet the needs of the organization, the project, its stakeholders, the chosen solution and any transition requirements. It must also detail any dependencies, assumptions or constraints for each requirement. This process of collecting requirements provides the basis for defining and managing the project scope along with the product scope.
