What is Requirements Elicitation Techniques

Requirements Elicitation Techniques are different ways that someone can get information about a system from different people such as staff, customers and other types of stakeholders. Examples of techniques that weren’t looked at in detail are:

• Workshops: This is a series of meetings that help to bring together the main people of the project which can result in getting some objectives to solve a problem. It allows you to also bring people outside the company into the equation in solving different problems you may come up against.
• Surveys: It a tool, used to collect information of questions and subjects you would like to know more about. It is something that can be used within the company with different employees, or can be used to get input from customers and/or shareholders with the company.
• Documentation Review: This is when different written documents, such as manuals and leaflets, can be used to figure out problems within a business and see if you can get any solutions from it.
• Focus Groups: Like workshops, it is mainly made up of interviews with different stakeholders and raising awareness to any issues or questions that need to be answered in order to get a solution.
• Observation: Where someone watches and takes note on how people work in the company and ask questions to see if there is anything that the employees find problematic.
