A transition requirement is a requirement that defines characteristics that a solution must have in order to transition from the current state to the desired future state. These are characteristics that will not be needed once the transition is completed. Two key points:

  1. Transition requirements are temporary.
  2. Transition requirements place an emphasis on change management processes.

Definitions

According to the BABOK Guide (3rd edition),

Transition requirement. A requirement that describes the capabilities the solution must have and the conditions the solution must meet to facilitate transition from the current state to the future state, but which are not needed once the change is complete. They are differentiated from other requirements types because they are of a temporary nature.

Draft descriptions

The transition requirements are the requirements needed to implement the software application successfully.

Transition requirements refer to the requirements to enable successful implementation of a project. As per BABOK,

   Describe the capabilities that the solution must have and the conditions the solution must meet to facilitate transition from the current state to the future state, but which are not needed once the change is complete. They are differentiated from other requirements types because they are of a temporary nature.

Transition requirements are short period requirements. Once these requirements are completed, these no longer exist. Example of transition requirements

Examples of transition requirements are as follows:

   The users must be trained to be able to use the system effectively
   Previous years data must be migrated to the new system to generate comparative report

Transition requirements define the solution capabilities required to transition from the current to the future state and are no longer needed once the transition is complete.

Transition requirements : describe the capabilities that the solution must have and the conditions the solution must meet to facilitate transition from the current state to the future state, but which are not needed once the change is complete. They are differentiated from other requirements types because they are of a temporary nature. 7 Transition requirements address topics such as data conversion, training, and business continuity.
