What are Capabilities?

Capabilities are how you can match a catalogue solution to a business need. For example, you may want to enable GP staff to make a digital record of any consultation with a patient. You can therefore identify catalogue solutions which offer the 'Recording Consultations' Capability.

Each Capability is a set of requirements that are defined using short descriptions called Epics. The more functionality a catalogue solution has, the more Epics it will be able to meet for a particular Capability.
