S5: Confirm Functional Scope and Business Requirements

Notice: applying this to your agency.

The IT Project Resources are not meant to replace your agency’s internal project management practices or prescribe how you must operate. Instead, they offer concepts and tools that can strengthen delivery by providing a scalable framework for project level coordination. All project documentation should be maintained throughout each stage in alignment with agency policies and, where applicable, WaTech requirements and oversight expectations.

 

Ensure business requirements are validated, traceable, and aligned with the final system configuration.  Note: If customer requirements are present, they should also be validated with end customer impacted group as applicable.

For Programs:

Validate enterprise functional scope and cross‑agency dependencies. Confirm traceability to final configuration.

For Programs with Agency‑Led Sub‑Projects:

Agencies confirm local scope and requirements. Enterprise team ensures alignment with enterprise objectives.

For Projects:

Validate project‑specific requirements and confirm traceability to final configuration.
