Product: Functional design & selection of IT-services for the business

Here the businesss operations are analysed with regard to information and communication. More detailed information requirements are captured with reference to the operational business design. The business domain is further analysed to identify the information and communication that is to be stored in information systems and used by the users. At this level the information architecture and blueprints are further elaborated. Thus the current and future business information and communication is described.

The quality of information requirements matters a lot to the quality of the resulting IT services. Good analysis can make up 70% of the endresult. Analysis of the business processes to be supported and analysis of the information requirements that are to be captured for the activities within these processes. HIT has a lot of experience in getting this job done properly. Through analysis of existing documentation, through workshops with customers and users and through our structured approach to capture, classify, elaborate and conclude information requirements.

HIT distincts different requirement types, such as functional and non-functional, interface and interaction and make sure all requirements can be traced to the activities to be supported. When customers and users go through the process of stating their requirements, they usually get a lot of new ideas to improve the supported processes as well. Because of this organizational structures may change as well. The business to be supported may become a moving target. Therefore we analyse, capture and document both information requirements and the business to be supported in conjunction. With clear tracing of the dependencies between business and requirements, the impact of changes can be assessed more easily. Enabling highly interactive and iterative processing of changes in the business to be supported, their requirements and product features.

HIT supports any business in this process, but are particularly specialized and experienced in supporting IT organizations to specify supporting development, service and system management tooling. Example results are the functional paragraphs of RFI's, RFP's and tenders. As well we document changes in the supported business, so their implementation can be synchronized with the implementation of the supporting IT products and required changes in IT support.

Features:

Information analysis with views for each stakeholder concern, describing the current information provision.
   
Full functional design that specifies what information and communication is to be implemented in information systems.
   
HIT is specialized in the information analysis and design to select and develop or configure supporting IT development, service and system management tools.
