Very interesting information !
The Real Cost of Requirements Errors in Software Projects Ever been on a project where last-minute changes threw everything off track? I came across this eye-opening chart from Professor Jo(anne) M. Atlee at University of Waterloo that shows just how expensive it can be to fix requirements errors at different stages of a project. Here's the gist: 💡 Early Fixes (Requirements Phase): Costs are super low. 🛠️ Design & Coding: Costs start creeping up. 🔍 Unit & Acceptance Testing: Getting pricier, but still manageable. 🚀 Post Release: Yikes! Costs can explode up to 200 times more! The takeaway? Catch those errors early! It’s way cheaper and saves a ton of headaches down the line. Investing time in thorough requirements analysis upfront can make all the difference. #ProjectManagement #SoftwareDevelopment #LessonsLearned #CostSavings
