"Requirements Management is the process of establishing a common understanding of requirements and managing changes to those requirements throughout the development cycle to ensure that the stakeholder needs are met"

The above is but one of numerous definitions of Requirements Management. The two key points to note are firstly that the process develops a common understanding of what is required. This understanding can be thought of as existing at various levels such as customer, system and sub-system level. Secondly, the process provides for the management of this hierarchy, in particular change and the impact analysis of change. Requirements management is a collection of methods, processes, procedures and tools, which aid the discovery, capture and management of requirements.

It has been shown that the management of requirements related activities (e.g. user involvement, clear statement of requirements, realistic expectations and ownership) can provide significant benefits to projects.
The major driver, therefore, for the establishment of a Requirements Management service is to improve the definition and control of projects and thereby improve the overall likelihood of success of the projects.
