Abstract

Requirement gathering has traditionally been acknowledged as the most crucial as well as the most difficult step in the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Over the years, feedback from customized software packages, availability of standardized software packages as well as documented business processes has helped the budding developer in understanding business needs. In Bangladesh, a developing nation, there are many small business enterprises that are looking to computerize some of their business information processes. As the volume of their transactions does not justify the purchase of expensive ERP solutions, they look for small-data-volume customized solutions. The article shares how using a "working" or "live" prototype has been useful in gradually specifying customer needs, eliciting feedback and freezing requirements from clients who are not fully conversant with the benefits of computerization.
