A new research study on the impact of business requirements on organizations has been released. The study is backed by a large number of surveys of strategic projects in larger companies across North America.
Some top level findings:
The executive summary can be pulled from http://www.iag.biz/images/resources/iag%20business%20analysis%20benchmark%20-%20executive%20summary.pdf
The data is designed to help analysts show the importance of what they do, quantify the impact of good quality requirements, and show a path for success that is backed by statistics.
I look forward to your comments.

Is your previous paper on explaining importance of requirements to executives also available on the site? I recommend it to all our fellow members as well.
