Business Systems Analysis

Business AnalysisGetting the Requirements Right

The key to successful systems development and implementation is "Getting The Requirements Right". Many of the problems associated with implementing new business systems and the enhancement of existing business systems are attributable to business requirements issues. These include definition, feasibility, specification, communication and modification.    

Bridging the Gap between Business and Information Technology

There are numerous bespoke and formal methods for managing the analysis phases of system projects. However, the key to managing the requirements stages is in the ability to practically apply methods, skills and knowledge together with a robust process for interfacing between the business and technology areas within the project environment.

The requirements of the business have to be accurately defined so that the return on investment of the project can be achieved. Without effective management and application within the requirements phases the probabilities of achieving the business objectives are significantly reduced.

No organisation can afford to employ enough business systems analysts to meet the peak demand for new and existing systems projects and this causes opportunities to improve the business being missed or delayed.

We have a dedicated team of expert business system analysts who can work to your own in-house standards where required. We use the leading industry standard methods such as SSADM and The Rational Unified Process or a customised approach specific to your needs.

We ensure that the skills and techniques deployed are done so in a practical way so that both business stakeholders, users and technology teams can fully understand the process and ultimately approve the requirements.

Nemea Consulting believes that the main role of business systems analysis is to ensure that the identification, specification and communication of business and user requirements are clear, complete and accurate and ultimately managed in a pragmatic and practical way.
