Improving Requirements Development Efficiency and Quality with Decision Aids

Abstract

For the past two years, the U.S. Army Program Executive Office for Simulation, Training and Instrumentation (PEOSTRI) has researched, developed, and is currently implementing an approach for managing project requirements. PEOSTRI began by establishing the Requirements Management Working Group (RMWG), an experienced oversight team of requirements engineering subject matter experts (SMEs) and enterprise architects. The RMWG is chartered to facilitate and promote strategic reuse of requirements management assets. In 2020, the RMWG is developing a requirements decision aid, the Requirements Management Process Model (RMPM). The RMPM will assist projects with adopting and adapting enterprise assets-processes, tools, templates, and training materials. This paper describes the RMWGs process for creating the RMPM and how it will be used to identify PEO STRI enterprise assets appropriate to a given project. It defines the relationship between RMPM processes and project management approaches, and presents the planned path forward for prototyping this aid with PEO STRI program managers.
