ArgonDigital participated in the SIFMA Tech Expo in New York last week, and it was clear that the financial services industry “gets” the need for software requirements that are complete, accurate, and unambiguous. Many of those we met were not only interested in visual requirements models, but were also interested in the impact of compliance (both operational and regulatory) on requirements.
The newest report in the ArgonDigital Briefing Series, “Software Projects and Compliance: Key Considerations in Reducing Operational and Regulatory Compliance Risk,” was the most popular report we took to SIFMA. Through a high-level look at specific cases in requirements that address compliance issues, ArgonDigital’s research team examined ways in which software requirements can be used to reduce compliance risk—both for regulatory compliance and for operational compliance—and when during a project lifecycle complete, accurate requirements definition can have the greatest positive impact.
If you’d like a complimentary copy of the report, please email me via marketing@argondigital.com – I’ll be happy to send you a PDF promptly.
Just a reminder – Joy Beatty and Anthony Chen’s new book, “Visual Models for Software Requirements,” will be off-press soon. (And yes, we are all very excited about that!)
If you are currently on the Board of Directors for your local IIBA chapter, are interested in using the book as a resource for your chapter, and would be willing to provide a review (good or bad) on Amazon, please email me at marketing@argondigital.com so I can add you to our reviewers interest list. We’ll have a limited number of reviewer copies, so please let me know ASAP.
