HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 мар 2023
- Creating a Business Requirement Document (BRD) is a crucial step to ensure your team understands what needs to be delivered when starting a new project or initiative. In this tutorial, I'll show you how to create an effective and comprehensive business requirement document that covers all the essential aspects of your project.
First, we'll define what a Business Requirement Document is and why it's important for business analysts. Then, I'll walk you through the key sections and components of a BRD, such as the problem or opportunity statement, high-level requirements, project scope and limitations, stakeholder requirements, process maps, and more.
Next, I'll provide some business requirement document best practices including why functional and non-functional requirements should not be included in this particular document.
Finally, I'll show you how to structure your BRD and provide an example template that you can use. We'll cover the different sections of the document, including the introduction, and scope, as well as the requirements, assumptions, and constraints.
This tutorial will provide business analysts with the knowledge and tools needed to create an effective business analysis deliverable that will help your team deliver a successful project.

Awesome sir .. nice explanation.

It was so informative. Thanks :)

I was so surprised by your voice lol great video
LOL..that's interesting! What were you expecting? Glad you enjoyed the content.
I would love to see something related to Reporting Requirements.
Would be helpful and it's hard to find about it.
Check out my tutorial on Software Requirement Specifications. I discuss reporting requirements there. ruclips.net/video/M5DY3eTyhUA/видео.html
So from watching the video my understanding is that the requirements in the BRD is just business requirements? And then example functional requirements document is created into more in-depth from each business requirement from the BRD. So functional requirements is a separate document
That's correct. While some organizations include all requirements in one document, it's best practice to include the business requirements and stakeholder requirements in the BRD document. Then create the SRS document for the detailed functional and non-functional requirements. You can learn more about the SRS in this video: ruclips.net/video/M5DY3eTyhUA/видео.html
@@thebadocthank you
Excellent content, great job! Thank you very much!
You are most welcome! And thank you for the feedback! I appreciate it!
Hey BA Doc!
When it comes to estimate the time required to create a BRD from 0, for example for the project that you showed in the video, how long would you estimate the total creation?
In general, when it comes to predicting the required time and effort, how would you do it, when you have so much dependencies (aligning with stakeholders, creating the document from scratch, revising it with your teammates, etc.)?
Yes, there are SO MANY variables that can impact this. A general common rule of thumb is to allocate 10-20% of the total project time to requirements gathering and analysis. So for a 10-week project, you would expect to spend 1-2 weeks on requirements. But this is just a starting point. I usually start with this and then use the bottom up estimation technique to calculate a more realistic estimate. You can also look at the the amount of time it took you to create the BRD from previous projects and adjust based on the relative size of the current project. I hope that helps.
thank you very much for this insightful session, I really learned a lot
Hi, Rodney! You are very welcome. Glad to help. Also, be on the lookout for the SRS tutorial coming soon!
Thank you, It was very Informative session.
You are very welcome! I hope the information serves you well!
So is the brd , a high level overview ? contains the as is , to be , high level process flow and business rules .
iam a lil confused as there are some who say .... " put everything int he brd" and others who say " keep the brd simple " and the functional requirement document (frd) extensive and detailed
which one is the norm ???
cheers
Great question. Generally, it depends on the organization. The best practice, however, is to create a BRD with the high-level requirements first, then create a more detailed document such as an SRS or FRD afterward to outline the detailed specification. This is because your stakeholders should approve the BRD to confirm that everyone is in agreement on the solutions scope (high-level requirements) prior to putting in the effort of analyzing and decomposing the detailed requirements. It will greatly minimize wasted effort if you break them up into separate documents or have a living document where the BRD transitions into the SRS after the BRD is approved. I hope that helps.
