href="/wiki/Software_system" title="Software system">software system</a> to be <a href="/wiki/Software_development" title="Software development">developed</a>. It is modeled after the <a href="/wiki/Business_requirements" title="Business requirements">business requirements specification</a> <a href="/wiki/Concept_of_operations" title="Concept of operations">(CONOPS)</a>. The software requirements specification lays out <a href="/wiki/Functional_requirement" title="Functional requirement">functional</a> and <a href="/wiki/Non-functional_requirements" class="mw-redirect" title="Non-functional requirements">non-functional requirements</a>, and it may include a set of <a href="/wiki/Use_case" title="Use case">use cases</a> that describe user interactions that the software must provide to the user for perfect interaction. </p><p>Software requirements specifications establish the basis for an agreement between customers and contractors or suppliers on how the software product should function (in a market-driven project, these roles may be played by the marketing and development divisions). Software requirements specification is a rigorous assessment of requirements before the more specific system design stages, and its goal is to reduce later redesign. It should also provide a realistic basis for estimating product costs, risks, and schedules.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Used appropriately, software requirements specifications can help prevent software project failure.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The software requirements specification document lists sufficient and necessary requirements for the project development.<sup id="cite_ref-Pressman_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Pressman-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> To derive the requirements, the developer needs to have a clear and thorough understanding of the products under development. This is achieved through detailed and continuous communications with the project team and customer throughout the software development process. </p><p>The SRS may be one of a contract's <a
