What is the impact when the organization not doing proper Validation?

What you’ll see:

  • Lots of user change requests before/soon after the product is released
  • Arguments among the technical staff as to what the user “really” wants
  • Released product doesn’t meet user expectations.

Why Should You Care? Because…

  • Customers don’t want to pay for products that don’t meet their needs
  • If an end user refuses to use the product as delivered, their confidence in you is eroded – You’ll spend a lot of money trying to “make it right” or you’ll give up that customer’s future business.
