by P.J. Jakovljevic
Dec 22, 2003 Abstract : Project-oriented organizations have many project-specific business and accounting requirements often in compliance with complex industry-specific and regulatory requirements.

Requirements Definition For Package Implementations ( Pages)
by Joe Strub
Jan 28, 2003 Abstract : How do you go about defining the requirements of large package systems, particularly those with the all-encompassing scope of ERP, EAM, and CRM software, and still satisfy the needs to the project team, the user community, and executive management?
