Faciliated Systems Planning

Systems planning and requirements gathering are critical activities that, unfortunately, few do very well.

  • Recent research estimates that 40-50 percent of all defects found in software projects can be traced back to errors made during the requirements stage.
  • Up to 70 percent of the software tools purchased by organizations are never used. And, of those tools that are used, 90 percent are used by just one person or a small group.

Experts tell us that problems like these begin when requirements are drafted without detailed involvement and buy-in both from those who will use the system and from those affected by it. The result? The tools don't meet the needs of the organization, and users feel no involvement in the process and thus no commitment to change. Our facilitated approach to systems planning increases buy-in from stakeholders throughout the entire Systems Development Life Cycle, and yields more easily implemented solutions.

Our professional facilitators can guide your teams through requirements analysis, project definition, team activation, and other critical IT activities.

We offer structured processes to lead groups through information needs analysis, project planning, data and process modeling, requirements gathering, and facilitated review sessions to secure management and user sign-off on deliverables.

We are the experts at keeping a group focused, isolating critical information, building consensus and commitment, keeping participation high, and managing dysfunctional group behavior.
