Is it possible to implement an agile project without overhauling your requirements process? I think not. The key economic benefits flow from agile methods ability to reduce "work in progress" compared to traditional methods [Anderson]. This means specifiers must take a much lighter approach to distant requirements and have much greater involvement, for example as "on-site customers" or product owners, in requirements currently being implemented.
