Requirements provide the foundation for all forthcoming systems development. As development efforts increase in complexity and decrease in time, the need for detailed and correct requirements and  specifications is critical. From determining what a client wants through systems design, development and testing, the more complete the requirements, the lower the development costs. Gathering, analyzing and documenting detailed requirements needs both general knowledge of the problem domain and experience in real-time embedded software development.

By using its extensive background in designing and developing real-time embedded software, DDI brings those skills necessary to insuring that the requirements gathered will allow for an effective, efficient development effort. Effectiveness of requirements is not limited to just the gathering and analysis of information but how they are documented and understood by those impacted by the development effort. Formatting documents toward the 2 key groups, Client and Software Engineering, insures that what is wanted (Client) and what is to be built (Software Engineering) is understood and agreed early in the development cycle. This involves:

·   Working with the Client, Hardware and Software Engineering to partition and detail requirements

·   Documenting requirements using various text, Use Cases, graphical and modeling techniques

·   Analyzing and specifying I/O and system interfaces

·   Performing partitioning of software requirements into functional blocks

·   Factoring offshore/outsourcing opportunities

·   Analyzing current software development methodologies and processes for best possible partitioning

·   Reviewing previous projects for component design and code reuse

·   Evaluating requirements for required development tools

Experience:

·   Extensive hands-on project management and software development experience

·   Trained and practiced as an ISO-9000 auditor

·   Experienced working with clients in a wide variety of industrial development efforts

·   Experienced working with offshore software engineering vendors

·   Extensive Requirements Engineering experience using various text, Use Cases, graphical and modeling techniques

·   Experienced in evaluating and using a wide variety of development tools
