Requirement session is usually done through JAD session. Business Folks and Major sponsors are always there along with Some technical folks. Business analyst then goes through each requirement and asks for the feed back. If Business Sponsors and Technical Folks think that all the requirements are according to the business and wont be a barrier to existing system. They get the official signoff on Business Requirement document. IT manager and Business manager both do the signoff on that business requirement document.

The business analyst should do some research on the problem before jumping to requirement analysis. Then with proper homework (like his initial understanding of the problem, questions, if anything is already available in the system and people are not able to make it etc) he/ she should organize discussion (JAR) sessions. JAR session typical should inlcude business users, important business stakeholders, technology team respresentitive (may be architect, tech lead). BA should set a context of each JAR session viz should divide the total problem area into segment and attack each segment at a time sequentially. User should be listened carefully initially without a prejudice. problem state should be depicted by BA diagrams to present eaiser understanding to user team and technology team. Organized brainstorming should be conducted by BA. After proper question-answer, brainstorming (what typically hapens in a JAR session) requirements should be layout. Technology teams give their input for the feasibility of the requirements, BA and tech team study together whether duplicate requirements are stated because of lack of understanding e.g. different users may percieve same thing differently and so state as different problem. When ambiguity is removed, clear and feasible requirement is layed out considering the time frame of delivery, BA should take sign of from user team, business team and technology team of the requirement document.

This process is from my experience. Hope this helps!
