W3C / WSAWG Spring 2002Overview of CSF Analysis: Overview of CSF Analysis CSF analysis is: A method developed at MIT’s Sloan school by John Rockart to guide businesses in creating and measuring success Widely used for technology and architectural planning in enterprise I/T A top-down methodology that is especially suitable for designing systems as opposed to applications A reductionist method for going from an abstract vision to concrete requirementsWhat Is a Critical Success Factor?: What Is a Critical Success Factor? A key area where satisfactory performance is required for the organization to achieve its goals A means of identifying the tasks and requirements needed for success At the lowest level, CSFs become concrete requirements A means to prioritize requirementsThe CSF Method: The CSF Method Start with a vision: mission statement Develop 5-6 high level goals Develop hierarchy of goals and their success factors Leads to concrete requirements at the lowest level of decomposition (a single, implementable idea) Along the way, identify the problems being solved and the assumptions being made Cross-reference usage scenarios and problems with requirementsResults of the Analysis: Results of the Analysis Mission statement Hierarchy of goals and CSFs Lists of requirements, problems, and assumptions Analysis matrices Problems vs. Requirements matrix Usage scenarios vs. Requirements matrix Solid usage scenariosRelationship to Usage Scenarios: Relationship to Usage Scenarios Usage scenarios or “use cases” provide a means of determining: Are the requirements aligned and self-consistent? Are the needs of the user being met as well as those of the enterprise? Are the requirements complete?Example: From Goal to Requirements: Example: From Goal to Requirements Put a man on the moon in 10 years Invent orbital rocket Invent re-entry vehicle Create landing module Invent space suit Plant plastic flag w/support wire Recite heroic speech Mug for camera (…more CSFs here)Things to Think About: Things to Think About Brainstorming: “if we do all of these things, will we succeed?” Refactoring and rearranging the hierarchy are part of the process (the hierarchy itself is important information) Leave no stone unturned: every idea is a good one Different levels of abstraction require careful navigation!Conclusion: Conclusion CSF analysis: Produces results that express the needs of the enterprise clearly and (hopefully) completely Allows us to measure success and prioritize goals in a sensible way When used together with traditional usage scenarios, ensures that the needs of both the user and the enterprise are being met You do not have the permission to view this presentation.
