Requirements Document
The Requirements Document serves as a blueprint for the CRM system, outlining the needs, preferences, and
expectations of stakeholders. It details the features, functionalities, and constraints that the system must adhere
to.

• This deliverable corresponds to Phase 2: Requirements Gathering, where stakeholders' requirements are
collected, analyzed, and documented.

• Conduct thorough interviews and workshops with stakeholders from various departments to gather
diverse perspectives and ensure comprehensive coverage of requirements.

• Document not only the functional requirements but also non-functional requirements such as
performance, security, and scalability.

• Prioritize requirements based on their criticality, business value, and dependencies to guide subsequent
phases of the project.

System Design Document

The System Design Document translates the requirements into a technical blueprint, detailing the architecture,
components, interfaces, and data flows of the CRM system. It serves as a guide for developers to implement the
system effectively.

• This deliverable aligns with Phase 3: Design, where the conceptual design is transformed into a detailed
technical design.

• Create system diagrams, including architectural diagrams, data flow diagrams, and entity-relationship
diagrams, to visualize the structure and interactions of system components.

• Define interface designs, including user interfaces, application programming interfaces (APIs), and
integration points with external systems.

• Consider scalability, flexibility, and maintainability in the system design to accommodate future growth
and changes in requirements.

Development Milestones
Development Milestones mark significant stages in the development lifecycle of the CRM system, providing
checkpoints to track progress and ensure alignment with project objectives. These milestones may include the
completion of key features, modules, or integration points.

• This aligns with Phase 4: Development, where the actual coding and implementation of the CRM system
take place.

• Break down the development work into manageable tasks and assign them to development teams or
individual developers.

• Implement an agile development methodology, such as Scrum or Kanban, to facilitate iterative and
incremental development and ensure continuous feedback and improvement.

• Conduct regular sprint reviews and retrospectives to evaluate progress, identify issues, and adjust plans
accordingly.

Testing Plan and Test Cases

The Testing Plan outlines the strategy, approach, and resources required to validate the functionality,
performance, and quality of the CRM system. Test Cases provide detailed instructions for executing tests and
verifying the system's behavior against expected outcomes.

• This corresponds to Phase 5: Testing, where the CRM system undergoes rigorous testing to identify and
resolve any defects or issues.

• Define various types of testing, including unit testing, integration testing, system testing, performance
testing, and user acceptance testing (UAT), to ensure comprehensive test coverage.

• Allocate resources, including testing environments, tools, and personnel, to execute test plans effectively
and efficiently.

• Establish metrics and criteria for evaluating test results and determining the readiness of the system for
deployment.

Deployed CRM System

Deployment involves the rollout of the CRM system into the production environment, making it accessible and
usable by end-users. This includes activities such as installation, configuration, data migration, and validation.

• This milestone corresponds to Phase 6: Deployment, where the focus shifts from development to
deployment and operationalization of the CRM system.

• Develop a deployment plan that outlines the sequence of deployment activities, dependencies, and
timelines to minimize disruption to business operations.

• Conduct thorough testing and validation of the deployed system to ensure its stability, performance, and
compatibility with existing systems and processes.

• Provide training and support to end-users to facilitate a smooth transition to the new CRM system and
maximize user adoption and satisfaction.

Training Materials and Sessions

Training Materials and Sessions are essential for equipping end-users with the knowledge and skills needed to
effectively use the CRM system. These include documentation, guides, tutorials, and interactive training sessions
tailored to the specific needs and roles of users.

• This aligns with Phase 7: Training, where end-users are trained on the functionalities and features of the
CRM system to ensure its successful adoption and utilization.

• Develop comprehensive training materials that cover various aspects of the CRM system, including
navigation, data entry, reporting, and troubleshooting.

• Conduct hands-on training sessions led by experienced trainers to provide personalized guidance and
support to end-users.

• Offer ongoing support and resources, such as helpdesk support, user forums, and knowledge bases, to
address user questions, issues, and feedback post-implementation.
