A computer-implemented method, system, and computer program product for generating ideation scenarios. A requirement to be used in ideation is received. The intent associated with the received requirement is then identified. An intent refers to the actions to be performed to accomplish the purpose or objective of the requirement. Each intent is associated with a requirement as well as one or more inputs and a final output. A pre-requirement and a post-requirement to the received requirement are then identified. Upon identifying such requirements, the intents associated with such requirements are identified. Upon identifying the intents, such as for the received requirement and the pre- and post-requirements, such intents are joined to generate ideation scenarios in terms of actions. An ideation scenario refers to the idea or solution based on a requirement, where the ideation scenario includes the intents along with the associated requirements, inputs and final outputs.
