Requirement:
A condition or a capability needed by a user to solve a
problem or achieve an objective that must be met or
possessed by a system or system component to satisfy a
contract,standard,specification, or other formally imposed
document.
Specification:
A document that specifies, ideally in a complete,precise
and verifiable manner, the requirements, design, behaviour,
or other characteristics of a component or system, and
often,the procedures for determining whether these
provisions have been satisfied.
In very simple language
Requirement is nothing but the raw data gathered from the
customer what he wants whereas Specification is a document,
which explains cutomers needs and what system should do and
how it should work, the points which are not specified in
requirement,the architecture of the syatem and so on..

Requirement(BRS):-
BRS- business requirements specification. Business
analyst will interact with the client and will form BRS
document,
It contains
1.scope of the project
2.business rules
3.client requirements in depth.
Initially client will give the req's in their own format
then it will be converted in to Standard format( which we
call as Specification) by which s/w people can understand.
In BRS the req's are defined in general format. where as in
SRS ,the req's will be divided in to modules and each module
contains How many interfaces and screens it can have.
SRS:-
Based on BRS system analyst will form SRS document,
it contains
1. System requirements along with hardware requirements
2. Functionality to be developed and
3. what is input
4. what is output
5. what is front end
6. what is back end
7. what are the technologies
8. what r processes how they will interact.
based on sRS document design will be generated.
SRS is a Software /System Requirement specification,it is a
MS word doc. which defines the complete business
functionalities of the particular application
SRS designed by System Anallyst
HOpe it might give ur answer.

Answer / leng vang
Requirement: collection of "what" user's needs regardless
of technology capabilities and without consideration of how
the needs are met.
Specification: A logical, restricted, bounded and
verifiable description on "how" a system will satisfy the
requirement.
In parallel, system design and test cases are then
developed from the specification.
Specific technology or specific behavior may come with the
requirement, but keep them separate.
