Strategic alignment in requirements analysis for organizational IT: an integrated approach

We present an integrated approach to requirements engineering for organizational IT to help ensure IT-business strategy alignment. A single, unified model to enable validation of system requirements against business strategy is proposed. We use VMOST analysis to deconstruct business strategy. We then model strategy using a goal-oriented requirements engineering notation; this is done within the framework for modeling an organization's business strategy proposed by the Business Rules Group. We use Jackson's problem frames to represent business model context. Our approach is illustrated via an e-business case study of Seven-Eleven Japan taken from the literature.
