Author or import requirement specifications

A Request for Proposal (RFP) typically includes the statement of work (SOW), requirement specifications for the product, terms and conditions, and data requirements. You can import and parse the specification documents into individual paragraphs and requirements. Alternatively, you can manually author the requirement specifications with requirements.

Import the requirement specifications from a Microsoft Word document as follows:

Procedure

1. On the Home page, click Import Specification.

   The Import Specification panel is displayed.

2. Drag the requirement specification Word document to the Choose File box.

3. Select the Type as Requirement Specification, the Subtype as Requirement, and click Import. You can also click Preview to verify the requirements before starting the import.

   Select Run in Background if you are importing a large amount of data and wish to continue working before the import process is complete.

   IPP&E parses the Word document into a Requirement Specification containing individual requirements.
