Abstract

The Request For Proposal (RFP) process can be agileand efficient. At a high level, the key to achieving this isto specify requirements just in time and containing justenough detail. This paper applies the following XPpractices and concepts to the RFP process: acceptancetests, business value, iterative & incremental delivery, on-sitecustomer, pair development, planning game, spike,story, velocity, and yesterday's weather. In addition, thefollowing concepts are combined with those from XP toachieve maximal benefit: user-goal use case, contextdiagram, level of detail, and decision tree.The contributions of this paper to the agile communityare two-fold: describing a practical application of XPconcepts to a non-programming project; and making usecase style requirements processes more agile.
