Phase 1 — Vision & Scope

Phase 1 establishes the strategic and structural foundation of the Sillah (صلة) project.

This phase corresponds to the Inception stage of the Requirements Engineering (RE) lifecycle as defined in SE311.

The goal of this phase is to clearly define:

  • The business problem
  • The opportunity and justification
  • The system vision
  • Stakeholders and constraints
  • Project boundaries and limitations

A well-defined Vision & Scope reduces ambiguity, aligns stakeholders, and prevents uncontrolled requirement expansion in later phases.
