In this scenario, the stakeholders are actually defining solutions, not business requirements. Solutions are the specific ways of satisfying one or more business needs in the context of a specific project or initiative. Solutions include the products, services, or results that are delivered to the stakeholders, as well as the changes to the organization, processes, and capabilities that are required to enable the delivery. Solutions are different from business requirements, which are the higher-level statements of the goals, objectives, or needs of the enterprise. Business requirements are not solution-specific and do not include any details of how the needs will be met. Business requirements are also different from perceived problems, which are the negative aspects of the current state that the stakeholders want to resolve; perceived needs, which are the positive aspects of the desired state that the stakeholders want to achieve; and longevity, which is the expected lifespan of the solution or the business need. References:
