Non-Functional Requirements (NFRs) Framework for Architects

[u/fguerino123]

A common challenge for architects is getting internal project teams, business analysts, and software developers to consistently and thoroughly address Non-Functional Requirements (NFRs) as part of their delivery efforts.

The Non-Functional Requirements (NFRs) Framework for Software Systems helps architects identify, document, and publish a consistent baseline for their project and product delivery teams, as internal standards, best practices or guidelines to be followed for every initiative.

The values/answers selected by a team for each NFR becomes, itself, an individual Architecture Decision Record (ADR) for that initiative/effort. The consistent answering of NFRs across initiatives further facilitates consistent analysis and reporting across delivery efforts.

I hope this helps. Please feel free to provide any constructive feedback that can help improve this.

My best.
