Context
The Non-Functional Requirements illustrate the necessary information required to effectively define business and technical non-functional requirements. The intended audience is the project and programme teams, and any stakeholder whose input/approval into the requirements definitions process is needed.
These NFRs are specified to support the MVP implementation of TIS and will need to be updated to reflect new functionality rolled out post March.
Scope
These NFRs are intended to govern both the internal Admin application, the back end development and management of the app and the external facing Trainee application.
