The success of IT system development is largely dependent on the System Requirements Definition (SRD) phase. Researches on Critical Success Factors (CSFs) in the SRD phase are beneficial to the success of IT system development. However, reports that consider the situation in the system requirements definition phase is lacking and these studies try to develop universal truths for CSFs without lessons learnt from empirical evidence need to be characterized. This study is a step towards bridging this gap in characterized evidence to discover “difficult items” in the SRD phase. Moreover, we conducted a case study to justify the importance of CSFs that could be 1) Customer/User Involvement, 2) Clear project goals, and 3) Technical skills of the project team in the SRD phase. The results of the characterization indicated that those major CSFs are consistent. Another issue can also be mitigated by examining Agile method.

The paper addresses the problem of achieving alignment of information system requirements and business strategy and infrastructure. Themost popular strategic alignmentmodels and enterprise architecture frameworks are reviewed. The role of these models and frameworks in the process of requirements definition and the ways to utilize them to achieve the alignment are analyzed.

Requirements definition is the first step in the life cycle of a software system. Requirements are formulated as paragraphs of text and appear ambiguous, so they cannot be translated directly into code. For this reason, they are treated as secondary artifacts for software developers. This paper presents a model-driven based approach where requirements are treated as first-class citizens, and can contribute to the final code. In this approach, requirements are formulated as use case models with their textual scenarios, using a precise requirements language called RSL, allowing an automatic transition to executable Java code. The structure of the generated code follows the Model-View-Presenter (MVP) architectural pattern. The work focuses on the Model layer code, which is responsible for the persistence and storage of data in a database system.

The success of IT system development largely depends on the System Requirements Definition (SRD) phase. Researches on Critical Success Factors (CSFs) in the SRD phase are very few. This paper aims to make clear the CSFs in the SRD phase of IT system development. To achieve this, first, interviews to discover “difficult items” in the SRD phase were executed to participants who were engaged in three highly advanced IT system developments. Second, major difficult items were extracted from the interview results. Third, CSFs estimation was executed from the extracted major difficult items. Then, the estimated CSFs were compared to those obtained from the interviews. As a result, CSFs were found to be almost the same between those estimated and interviewed. Through this research, it can be concluded that 1) Customer/User Involvement, 2) Clear project goals, and 3) Technical skills of the project team are the major CSFs in the SRD phase
