This document summarizes the findings and presents the raw data from the Introducing Requirements Management into Organizations workshop hosted by the SEI (Software Engineering Institute) in November 1996. A transition package consists of a process description, related materials for users of the description, and materials for use by change agents in action teams and technical working groups introducing requirements management processes and tools into their organizations. The workshop participants considered the feasibility of building a transition package to expedite the adoption of effective requirements management practice and concluded that a transition package can and should be built for requirements management. This document records and publicizes the findings of the workshop, including problems and opportunities related to requirements management transition packages identified by workshop participants.
