Abstract
Requirements elicitation issues are categorized under problems of scope, problems of volatility and problems of understanding. This study is proposed as an extension to two critical research work related to requirements elicitation issues and their impacts on overall project performance. One study determines factors that categorically represent focus areas in elicitation. The cause and effects of elicitation issues under each of these factors are identified and relevance is drawn with reference to the general categories of elicitation issues. Another study demonstrates an empirical association between categories of elicitation issues and overall project performance. A theoretical model is proposed to provide an in-depth analysis and perspective on the association between the factors influencing elicitation issues and overall project performance. This provides a framework to extend the empirical analysis to deduce focused quantitative metrics for priority-setting and decision-making to address elicitation issues.
