I am interested in current statistics or studies that indicate trends in project failures directly or indirectly tied to poor requirements management.

Robert,

You might want to look at the Standish Groups' "Chaos Report." It's a few years old now, but has some very good information about project "failure" - not directly tied to requirements per se, but it certainly touches on it.

Robert --

You may want to visit www.tbi.com. TBI offers a requirements management solution that goes by the name CALIBER. In marketing CALIBER, they point to a variety of statistics attributing a high percentage of project failures to poor requirements management (including the Chaos Report previously mentioned).

Let us know how it goes.

I hate to do this on a dicussion board, but as someone here already mentioned one of our reports I'm hoping I'll be forgiven for this blatent advertisement... we at the Standish Group also have a report on requirements management which includes data as well as a reveiw of some of the major players. You can find it in our store by going to our homepage www.standishgroup.com and clicking on the "standish store" link on the right hand side of the page. The report you'll be looking for is call "What are your requirements?"

Lots of topics are there to discuss requirements management and the relationship between it as a process and the success of the project.
Requirements elicitation, requirements analysis, specifications documents and many others, BUT, can any one please share his/her vision of a healthy requirements management phase listed in points as steps?
