Requirements Gathering

Identifying key requirements is a crucial element to any major project, so we work with brands to understand their eCommerce needs and requirements through a series of comprehensive workshops and a final audit doc.


Over the years, we’ve built out detailed requirements documents and technical specifications for a wide range of brands and retailers across varied projects. Our most common project type would be a replatform scope or large migration, however we have also carried out similar processes for product builders, internationalisation projects, introduction of trade or B2B functions, loyalty programs, single-sign on projects, POS projects and lots more.

Requirements Gathering

Our team has deep experience in scoping out complex projects across a wide range of eCommerce platforms and technology stacks, and we’re also partnered with most platforms and key tech partners. The level of detail we go into varies, depending on the complexity of the project, budget and the people that are going to be working with the spec. Our average requirements gathering process would be a fixed scope exercise, based primarily on the following:

  • Planning and research, so we could come to the workshops with the right questions.
  • Initial business and discovery workshops - to give us additional context around commercials, general context, team and stakeholders.
  • Initial functional and technical workshops with all key stakeholders - this is where we’d start to capture the detail for the specification. We’d typically bring team members into these sessions that have the right experience so it’s more of a discussion and collaboration, and we’re building out the right requirements and solutions together.
  • Internal review and solutioning.
  • Agreement on solutions, including commercials and implementation route.
  • Enhancement of documentation.
  • Presentation of specifications and documentation with agreement on next steps.

Vervaunt has been instrumental in the vast growth of our eCommerce business both via their paid media services and eCommerce consultancy. I've personally worked with them for a total of 4 years on several occasions in two different businesses and each time they have brought their wealth of knowledge in all manners of eCommerce including technical, strategic and performance. What makes them stand out is their team who specialise in specific areas of the business meaning you receive expert advice and solutions which are relevant to your setup. Their eagerness to support and pro-active nature means they are testament to the "extension of the team" phrase. A highly recommended partner for any business looking to scale with immediate results.
