    During the define phase of a project, consultants should: read existing business processes and challenges; avoid defining solutions and focus on requirements; gather all potential requirements from stakeholders and filter down to essential ones; collect non-functional requirements from clients or technical constraints; and build a glossary of business terms to reduce ambiguity and ensure all parties understand terms consistently. They should also ask questions to fully understand the problems requirements aim to address.

    Functional Consultant Certain Ideas

    Part 2
    Best Practices to be followed during define phase:

    Read and comprehend as much as possible on the existing business processes and challenges
    currently faced by the client.

    During the definition phase, first and foremost avoid defining the solution rather than the
    requirement.

    During the initial discussions with business, gather all potential requirements requested by
    stakeholders. Later, analyze, evaluate and filter all the requirements so that only the essential
    requirements remain.

    Start gathering the non-functional requirements that are either requested by the client or imposed
    by the technical constraint.

    Build the glossary for the business terms used during the initial discussions and getting used in
    the initial document. This will help both business and the project team to clear any ambiguity and to be on
    same page.

    Keep asking questions (to yourself) like - do I understand the business problem that the
    requirement is trying to solve?
