About

Hello there

Hi, I'm Michelle - Customer focused, keen to have a user friendly service.

Strengths in gathering Business Requirements, Business Rules and helping to translate these into Functional Requirements for Stakeholders to review and Sign Off. Technical Teams can then translate these into Technical Requirements for Developers to build Frontend websites or applications which would interface with various technical backend processes. Testers can quickly determine Use Cases to help establish the test cases required to ensure postive and negative pathways through the system are covered.

Adopting this method of documenting requirements reduces future rework and Technical debt. Allows technical teams to follow an Agile Methodology if appropriate to deliver in a Minimum Viable Product approach. It helps anyone coming along in the future to quickly understand the purpose and be able to enhance the requirements in a traceable manner.
