JAD for Requirements consists of formal preparation for, delivery of,
and follow-up from a formal facilitated Requirements Gathering session.
JAD stands for Joint Application Development which is a catch-all term
for formal requirements sessions that are process and deliverable based.
JAD techniques are very productive when your project has many
stakeholders with unique skills, needs, and differing points of view.
JAD is cost and time efficient in the following ways:
-
Reduces back and forth conversation in smaller meetings, email, and
document review, which can take months and sap energy from projects.
By bringing everyone together at the beginning of a project, needs
and concerns are brought out swiftly and publicly. Priorities are
set and understood by all, reducing the otherwise potentially
slowing churn of individual lobbying and verbal commitments.
-
If a project is not really viable, it is likely to surface during
the JAD. Thereby, saving everyone from working on a project that
will slowly starve or, worse, run to completion yet yield little or
no value.
We have developed a robust process to help prepare and facilitate a
seamless JAD for Requirements session. The process begins with off-site
planning meetings that allow our team to create a reference guide to use
within the session, provide our team with the details on the project,
and review any documents that may need to be updated as part of the
output of the session.
We conduct the session as a brainstorming session that provides an
opportunity for individual perspectives to be shared, refined, and
combined in a group environment to enhance and develop business
requirements. It typically consists of mind mapping on a whiteboard,
brainstorming ideas then categorizing them as they are discussed by the
group, and creating a work breakdown structure to breakdown big
requirements into small manageable ones and dive into the details at the
right time. The session follows the following process:
AMS can customize any best practice to fit your organizational needs.
