It's horrible at work these days. We are in the third time of re-planning in the same year. The requirement gather approach just wasn't working. We started the workshops doing business process mapping which is usually used for business process improvement purposes. If used to set the context for requirement gathering, the maps need to be kept at high level to set the stage only. Now that we spent so much time and energy on the detailed level process, people are confused about what we are trying to accomplish, and not mentally prepared to drill down into the data element and data flows. Another road block is that the client is in the category of "technology hostages", baby boomer that are not comfortable with technology but forced to take it up. It's my first time working with this type of client. I should be grateful for the experience.
