What happens in Concept
- Situation analyses are carried out, based on the chosen variant and the first situation assessment from the study.
- The requirements from the study are completed and fixed as solution requirements.
- If the solution affects business processes or structures, the organizational requirements and then the organization concept are prepared.
- The solution is designed. Its feasibility, or that of single components, is checked, for example with prototypes.
- The deployment concept is prepared. Depending on the scenario, the test concept and the migration concept follow.
- In IT projects, the solution architecture and the operating concept are prepared, and the solution architecture decision is taken.
- If the solution is procured, the tender is carried out, the offers are evaluated, and the product or system is procured.
- For systems, the integration concept is prepared.
How Concept ends
The phase release decision for Implementation is taken. By then, the project and operating risks are identified, analysed and assessed, feasibility is confirmed, and the resources for the next phase are released on the basis of the updated project management plan and the offers received.In Collabase
- Capture every solution requirement as a task of a Requirement task type, so it can be prioritised, linked and traced through Implementation. See Tasks.
- Write the concepts in Collabase Docs from templates, inside the project’s Docs view.
- Plan the test concept with Test Management: test cases, test runs and a milestone for preliminary acceptance.
- Update the Risk objects in Registry before the phase release.
