The market interest in developing reliable and stable products at shorter development time and reduced cost, has led to an increasing surge of interest in Component-Based Software Engineering. The success of these systems largely depends on the effective selection of components that meet users requirements. In this context, the products evaluation needs to be a simultaneous process with the requirements acquisition. This paper presents the CRE Method (COTS-Based Requirements Engineering), which is centered on requirements to assist the COTS selection process. The selection of medical packages is used as a case study.
