Requirements Specifier
The requirements specifier role details the specification of a part of the system's functionality by describing the Requirements aspect of one or several use cases and other supporting software requirements. The requirements specifier may also be responsible for a use-case package, and maintains the integrity of that package. It is recommended that the requirements specifier responsible for a use-case package is also responsible for its contained use cases and actors.
A person acting as the requirements specifier needs good communication skills, both person-to-person and written. Knowledge of the business and technology domain is also important, but not necessary for everyone acting in this role. A requirements specifier must be familiar with all tools used to capture the results of the Requirements discipline.
