Product Requirements Documentation

Project Requirements Discovery Assistant

Claude APIPythonFastAPISupabase

Product Requirements Documentation synthesizes workshop and interview artifacts into comprehensive PRDs for strategic initiatives. It guides the IS Solutions team through the full discovery-to-PRD cycle: planning activities, tracking coverage, synthesizing information, generating structured PRDs, and flagging gaps before work begins.

What Product Requirements Documentation Does

1
Plan Discovery Activities
Determines what workshops, interviews, and meetings are needed. Guides questions to get comprehensive PRD info. Identifies who needs to be in the room.
2
Track Coverage & Gather Artifacts
Tracks whether all required information is being collected. Flags coverage gaps while discovery is still in progress so nothing falls through.
3
Synthesize & Generate PRDs
Synthesizes information from workshops and interviews into structured, actionable PRDs. Prioritizes opportunities within strategic initiatives by impact and effort.
4
Flag Gaps & Export
Identifies what's still missing before PRD finalization. Exports completed PRDs in structured formats ready for implementation planning.

What Product Requirements Documentation Does NOT Do

Triage Intake Requests

Strategic priorities are already set by ELT — Product Requirements Documentation doesn't make prioritization decisions.

Predetermine Tech Stack

That's a separate process driven by the completed PRD, not the discovery phase.

Automate BRD Templates

BRDs for ELT submission remain a separate workflow; Product Requirements Documentation focuses on PRDs for implementation.

Replace Human Conversations

Coffee chats and workshops stay manual — Product Requirements Documentation synthesizes the output, not the interaction.

Technical Highlights

Full discovery lifecycle: plan → gather → synthesize → PRD → gap analysis
Coverage tracking during active discovery — flags gaps before workshops end
Impact/effort prioritization within strategic initiatives
Structured PRD output with clear format for handoff to implementation teams
