In examining relationships between requirements, the criterion of relevance ensures that each requirement is pertinent to the overall goals of the project. This means that all requirements should directly relate to the business needs and objectives, ensuring that they add value and are necessary for the project ' s success. When requirements are relevant, they help in maintaining focus on what is essential, avoiding unnecessary scope creep, and ensuring that resources are used efficiently.
