Abstract

With the increasing adoption of agile, lean, and iterative development methods, information systems development (ISD) has become continuous, meaning that system development moves rapidly from release to release. This means that work practices and challenges that practitioners face have changed. Despite these changes, requirements development is still critical in ISD. However, IS literature is silent on how to manage requirements-related risks in the practice of continuous IS development. To fill this gap, we propose a continuous requirements risk profiling method. The study is informed by design science research methodology, and we apply focus group interviews and a Delphi study for data collection to support the method development. The developed method can be integrated to ISD projects using different continuous ISD methods.
