Dr. Young will describe how, as "process owner" for the Requirements Process at Northrop Grumman Information Technology Defense Group, he has advocated for the practices he recommends in his most recent book, Project Requirements: A Guide to Best Practices (Management Concepts, 2006). Dr. Young is frequently asked to provide "Initial Requirements Briefings" and "Requirements Workshops" for new projects and for external customers. The content of these briefings and the approach for the workshops will be described. The requirements process used in his business unit will be discussed. The Requirements (RE) Process webpage made available within the business unit that contains links to extensive materials (policies, processes, startup, tools, training, proposals, resources, support) will be described. Insights concerning the Conference theme, Understanding the Stakeholders' Desires and Needs, will be offered. A set of "key requirements success factors" and "suggested remedies for typical requirements-related project startup issues" will be discussed. Recommendations for establishing an environment of continuous improvement will be provided. The concept of "meeting minimum requirements" will be advocated.
