In an effort to promote consistency and quality in our project requirements, I envision a Reusable Requirements Toolkit. This toolkit will take a neutral approach that helps guide the way for BAs through the Definition phase.

In terms of business requirements, I am not sure what you are after in asking for help to develop "pre-made ready to be cut-and-pasted requirements". The essential business requirements for one system are going to differ from another system. Can you elaborate?

Sorry, I can not help you: I only deal with business requirements. Business requrements are non-generic.
Hi Paul,
Search on amazon or similar for books on business analysis patterns. I looked recently and found at least one. Plus I believe that companies like IBM have developed sets of analysis patterns for various vertical markets. The book I looked at was pretty technical and perhaps not really for BAs - didn't buy it though.
This is currently an area of interest for me too. Perhaps you can post anything you find?
I think there is plenty of scope for the establishment of analysis patterns for common business problems that we as BAs can then tailor for our particular projects. Its a great potential productivity leap for us as BAs. Why reinvent the wheel on every project?
