39 Defining Project Scope (Inquestra) (Part 3 of 8) - This is one in a series of courses that focus on the phases of The Requirements Discovery Process. This course is intended to take the participant through a process of describing and documenting the scope of your project. Scope defines what is, and is not, part of our system. The course teaches techniques to identify the in and out-of-scope business activities, objects, interfaces and variations as a fundamental first step to scoping the product functionality.elicitation methods are covered that involve subject matter experts and representatives from other systems and departments. The discussion of scope also introduces the project team to methods of modeling the high-level scope and ensuring an appropriate level of detail is specified that will enable a fast and accurate start to a project. And we'll be applying best practices along the way so that your definition of scope will contribute to the definition of business requirements that conform to industry best practices standard deliverables Describing Business Process (Inquestra) (Part 4 of 8) - This is one in a series of courses that focus on the phases of The Requirements Discovery Process. This course is intended to take the participant through a process of describing and documenting the business processes (activities) that form the business context for your project. The descriptions of key business processes that you create during this phase of your project provide the context for all work that follows. For the requirements team, breaking the system into activities helps to focus discussions on smaller areas. For your business partners, it is easy to achieve consensus and buy-in at an activity level. For the project manager, organizing the system into activities allows the project manager to identify cohesive work packages. The detail gathered at this stage enhances the product description and confirms the project scope. For the design team, this discussion of business process at an activity level ensures the integration of the functional and data requirements and provides the basis for the software system specifications. And finally, for testers, activity descriptions provide the basis for meaningful test scripts that reflect actual business usage. Determining Information Requirements (Inquestra) (Part 5 of 8) - For those who are relatively new to data modeling concepts, we have simplified the rules of normalization and business rules that give you a jump-start on your next project. If you are more experienced in data modeling, you will see the ease of obtaining the object definition, relationships, cardinality and modality from your clients which enable you to build a solid conceptual data model, based on true business needs. Additionally, you'll have the context for data usage for each business process. And we'll be applying best practices along the way so that the resulting requirements you specify will conform to industry best practices and standard deliverables. Describing Functional Business Requirements (Inquestra) (Part 6 of 8) - This is one in a series of courses that focus on the phases of The Requirements Discovery Process. This course is intended to take the participant through a process of discovering, describing and documenting your client's business requirements completely, accurately and consistently regardless of your subsequent system development efforts. This means that whether you are specifying these requirements for a Web-enabled application, object-oriented, client-server, legacy system or a combination, true functional business requirements are independent of technology. This is beneficial because you won't need to go back and change the business requirements as the technology changes (which is often). And we'll be applying best practices along the way so that the resulting business 38

40 requirements you specify will conform to industry best practices in this particular area. Documenting Requirements Meetings (Inquestra) (Part 7 of 8) - This is one in a series of courses that focus on the skills and competencies of The Requirements Discovery Process. This course is intended to take the participant through the aspects of capturing and documenting Business Requirements completely, accurately and consistently regardless of your subsequent system development efforts. In fact, the skills that you will learn in this course can be used to capture discussions that are completely unrelated to developing systems. Eliciting Data Warehouse Requirements (Inquestra) (Part 8 of 8) - Industry gurus such as Inmon and Kimball have recognized that the models and methods to design a Data Warehouse are unique and different than traditional data modeling practices. However, it is only recently that these best practices have evolved as analysis tools in specifying Data Warehouse requirements. This course covers the How-To's of performing quality business requirements analysis for data warehousing projects: Identify, validate and document your Client's Requirements for a Data Warehouse, Data Mart or Decision Support System with confidence; Ensure that raw business data harvested from legacy transaction processing systems and other data sources is transformed into powerful Business Intelligence; Learn the latest practical techniques and best practices for specifying DW systems; Work directly and interactively with business clients in defining project requirements. Finally, there exist proven and practical techniques - which can be easily applied to your DW projects - to gather and prepare quality specifications for Data Warehouses, Data Marts and Decision Support Systems.
