Welcome to the Simpl requirements page! The requirements outline the functionalities and capabilities that guide Simpl-Open development. They evolve continuously and are up for discussion (see each card’s information to identify new and updated ones).

For this reason, your input is needed: explore, question and complement the requirements and help us guide Simpl-Open development.

All contributions will be directed to the relevant teams within the Simpl programme and the resulting decisions and discussions will be communicated back to the community and/or the original contributor. If you are a first time visitor, we recommend you explore the Glossary, Actor Definitions, and Requirement definitions, with useful explanations that may help clarify the content presented here.  

We look forward to your contributions. By sharing your insights, you will help us refine and improve these processes to better meet the needs of all Simpl-Open users.
