Business Requirement RICE

Beta License: AGPL-3 OCA/business-requirement Translate me on Weblate Try me on Runboat

This module lets you prioritise business requirements with the RICE scoring model, which is useful when you collect more requests than you can work on and need to decide which ones to address first.

The score combines four estimates:

  • Reach: how many users or events are affected over a given period.

  • Impact: how much each affected user benefits, from minimal to massive.

  • Confidence: how sure you are about your reach and impact estimates.

  • Effort: the total work needed, usually in person-months.

They are combined as Reach x Impact x Confidence / Effort, so a requirement that reaches many users for little work ranks above one that reaches few for a lot of work. The resulting score is stored, which means you can sort and group your requirements by it.

The priority field of the requirement is left untouched, so you can keep using it alongside the score.

Table of contents

Usage

To score a requirement:

  1. Go to Business Requirements and open or create a requirement.

  2. Go to the RICE tab and fill in reach, impact, confidence and effort.

  3. The score is computed as you fill them in.

To prioritise your requirements, go to the list view and sort by the RICE Score column, or use the Scored filter to leave out the requirements nobody has estimated yet. Reach, impact, confidence and effort are all optional: a requirement nobody has estimated simply scores zero.

Requirements with an effort of zero score zero, so an unestimated effort never sends a requirement to the top of the list. A negative reach or effort scores zero as well, since neither is a usable estimate.
