The previously proposed goal-oriented requirements process encounters numerous challenges that impede effective requirement analysis and complicate the prioritization of requirements as their volume increases. These challenges often lead to difficulties in accurately assessing the importance of each requirement, which can result in inefficient resource allocation and project delays. In this paper, we introduce a novel requirements extraction process that leverages the Use Case approach. This method not only addresses the aforementioned issues but also enhances the extraction process by incorporating the Use Case Points technique developed by G. Karner. By doing so, our proposed methodology aims to facilitate a more structured and comprehensive requirements analysis, ensuring that critical requirements are prioritized appropriately. As part of our research, we conducted a case study where we applied our proposed requirements extraction process to a car products management system. This practical application demonstrates the effectiveness of our approach in accurately identifying and analyzing the requirements essential for the successful management of car products. Our findings indicate that this improved process significantly aids in handling an extensive set of requirements while providing a clearer structure for decision-making in requirement prioritization.
