Measurable: We should be able to measure the success criteria of the requirement by different parameters
Attainable: The requirement should be possible to attain with the given resources
Relevant: The requirement should be in line with the project’s business case
Timely: The requirement should be posed in time i.e. early in the project life cycle.
