Business Requirements Document (BRD)

A formal, structured record that specifies and details an organization’s business needs.

Key Points

  • Defines what the business needs and why, not how the solution will be built.
  • Includes objectives, scope, stakeholders, high-level processes, and acceptance criteria.
  • Serves as a baseline for scope management and change control.
  • Requires review and approval from key business stakeholders to ensure alignment.

Example

A bank plans to launch mobile check deposit. The BRD outlines the business goal (increase digital adoption by 20%), in-scope features (capture, review, submit), excluded items (foreign checks), stakeholders (retail banking, compliance), constraints (regulatory hold times), and acceptance criteria (99.5% successful deposit submissions).
