Requirements Analysis and System Design

Building the Right System

Requirements analysis identifies business needs, while system design translates those needs into technical specifications. Errors during these phases are often expensive to correct later.

  • Functional requirements.
  • Non-functional requirements.
  • Business process analysis.
  • User interface design.
  • Database design.
  • Security design.
Note
Clearly documented requirements reduce misunderstandings and project failures.
Summary
Accurate requirements and thoughtful design are critical for successful software development.
