# Business Requirement

A Business requirement (BR) is the expression of a business need by a customer or internal project user.

A BR contains multiple different parts to explain the stakeholder need and how to meet his/her requirements:

- Customer Story: this is the requirement as expressed by the customer
- Scenario: How/where the current solution can provide a suitable scenario to answer the customer story
- Gap: For the uncovered part of the scenario, elaborate the gap/need for specific developments/setup
- Test case: A set of conditions under which a tester will determine whether the application, software system or one of its features is working as it was originally established for it to do.
- Deliverables to be provided to the customer/user
- Resources necessary to achieve the deliverables
- Additional information (approval, cost control etc.)

This set of modules was originally designed for the service/IT industry but the requirement management design has been kept as generic as possible so that it can apply to many other cases/industries (customer or internal projects):

- Construction
- Trading (New product development)
- Business Consultancy
- Web or IT development
- R&D projects
- etc.
