    There is tone in this teaching that I really appreciate. "Think about the end user, think about the human and how the system issue impacts them." Thank you very much. That is an extremely clear explanation.

      Thanks for watching Ms Titi and I'm happy you found it useful! No you typically do not write a BRD in agile envrironments. However, if you have clients who need to approve what you are about to build, you may need to create a BRD-style document that is client-facing to give them - even if your development methodology is agile. Hope that helps!

    Good day Karaleise, thanks for the video and I really appreciate your home environment. I love it 😍.
    I have a question. Is business case writing the same as business requirement document?

    • @karaleise
      @karaleise  2 роки тому

      Hi Kayode, thanks for watching and supporting the channel. No the business case is not the same as the business requirements document.
      The business case is a document to provide justification for an initiative the business wants to do which includes feasibility study, competitive analysis etc.. it helps management have the information to make the decision whether to do it or not and provides a recommendation.
      The business requirements document provides the requirement for what the business has already decided to do.
      You can get exposure of both how to write business cases and how to write business requirements in my course: BA Case Study here: the-backoffice-club.teachable.com/p/business-analysis-case-study
      Even if you are not ready to buy the course you can watch the free preview that talks about the business case from that link.
      Hope this helps!

    • @karaleise

      Hi Nazim, thank you for watching the video and supporting my channel!! Actually I did not go straight to the functional requirements in this video. I have the business problem, I have the solution overview and many other sections before the functional requirements begin.
      The functional requirements are in fact, the last things in the document used in this video. Also remember this is a template - you can add or remove sections as you see fit, to suit your project. Hope that helps!

    • @karaleise
      @karaleise  3 роки тому +1

      Hi Pooja, thanks for watching! No, not every company uses BRD because some companies are agile and BRDs are typically written in a waterfall environment. Here is a video that explains what documents BAs produce for different types of companies: ua-cam.com/video/cn2--7EcxiA/v-deo.html

    So you do not need to include business background and objective in your BRD? @karaleise

    • @karaleise
      @karaleise  Рік тому

      Hi Claudel, thanks for watching. You can name your sections whatever makes sense for your use case. You can rename "Business Problem" to be your "Business Background" and rename "Solutions Overview" to be your "Objective" if you like those terms better. This BRD video is not a formula - it's an example.
      So do what makes sense for your project. However dont make your document too fluffy and too far removed from its purpose. Dont talk about too many generic things about the business. Stick to the intent of this document - which is detailing the specific requirements to solve the specific business problem.

    Hi Karaleise! thank you for sharing your knowledge with us, you explain very clearly all the concepts. I just have a question. In your experience, how much time do you spend doing de BRD I know that can vary depending on the size of the project, but what would be an average estimation? Again thank you! your videos are super helpful 🙌🏼

    • @karaleise
      @karaleise  2 роки тому +2

      Hi Mr Goodlife, thank you for watching! How long it takes to write a BRD of course depends exactly on the type of project and there is no set time to complete a BRD becuase every project is different. It can take from 1 week to one month or more. In general though you can estimate at most 2 weeks as a safe time to deliver a draft setting the expectation that you may need more time to revise based on feedback. Hope that helps!
