Typical starting point
- A project is to be tendered, but the specification is still a collection of ideas.
- Two suppliers have quoted, the quotes differ by a factor of three, and nobody knows why.
- An existing system is to be replaced, and it is unclear what it actually does.
What we deliver
- Requirements document with functional and non-functional requirements, prioritised

How it runs
