Once the product planning process is complete and a product is approved, you will need a Market Requirements Document . Some companies call this the PRD or Product Requirements Document. I call it a Market Requirements Document because the most important point to focus on in the document is what the market wants or needs. It also helps to identify where the document is generated - in marketing. The market requirements document is designed to provide an outline of the prospective product for all interested parties.
