The term ‘fixed price’ raises a number of issues in agile development, since the scope should in theory be clearly defined. However, in practice, the requirements are often incomplete and subject to change. This can lead to uncertainty, different interpretations and, if worst comes to worst, the project failing. In this blog post, we will take a closer look at expectation management and the concept of scope. Along with that, we will also explore several requirements engineering methods that allow you to remain on budget and describe possible solutions in cases where your project is at risk of going over budget.

The traditional role of a business analyst is to support the change process at a company. One of their main tasks is to identify problems and develop solutions to solve them. The gap between where the company is and where it wants to be could be seen as a good starting point when they begin their work. I would like to present the problem statement as a method that I believe is the ideal way to get a good overview in a short amount of time.

Requirements engineering has become a key factor in machine learning projects in the age of artificial intelligence and machine learning. This blog post explains the importance, the theoretical underpinnings and the approach taken in this critical step in the process of developing AI systems.

The increasing complexity of software systems calls for approaches that are new, modern and different. Domain-driven design is thus gaining more and more attention, as this approach is much more than just an aid for developing microservices. In this blog post, I will describe how domain-driven design can also be used in requirements engineering.

Not every project has a UX designer. The requirements engineer is often asked to perform a kind of dual role – ‘they can do that little bit of UX as well, no problem’. I’d like to use this post to expand your UX horizons a little to help you understand the basics and possibly highlight a few important points to consider when designing software solutions.
