| Use the most appropriate method to gather information, such as the ones in <a class="elementLinkWithType" href="./../../openup/guidances/guidelines/requirements_gathering_techniques_8CB8E44C.html" guid="_OnoNQNSAEdmLhZ9H5Plxyw">Guideline: Requirements Gathering Techniques</a>. Each one is applicable in a particular |
| situation or to a certain type of stakeholder. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| If you can meet stakeholders in person, then you can conduct an interview or a brainstorming session. This face to face |
| collaboration is extremely valuable and reduces the chances of the project team misunderstanding the needs of the |
| stakeholders. |

| Some requirements may already be documented in an existing Work Item List. This can often be used as a solid starting |
| position from which a full set of requirements can be created. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Any requirements gathered during this step should be captured in the Work Item List. |
