Abstract

We present a case study of the application of fact-oriented modeling to the capture and management of requirement specifications for the introduction of an information technology solution within Microsoft. The delivered solution involves automation and centralization of information about relationships between Microsoft product offerings. The methodology contributed to the project’s fast turn-around time and high quality deliverable largely due to the clarity, completeness and traceability of business concepts and individual specification statements. We conclude with a generalization of the methodology used.
