Requirements management is critical to software delivery success
Align key stakeholders to improve project success
Manage requirements throughout the project lifecycle
Reduce risk with predictable project estimation
Manage the effectiveness and efficiency of requirements management
Designed to capture and manage business, technical, functional, and
operational requirements, CaliberRM enables stakeholders across the
organization to collaborate effectively so that projects are delivered on time,
within budget, and to specification.
Using CaliberRM to define, prioritize, and track requirements throughout the
project lifecycle, software development teams are able to respond rapidly to
ever-changing requirements without jeopardizing project success.
Powerful estimation capabilities take project planning and impact analysis to a
new level, helping organizations optimize the software delivery process by
delivering projects with greater predictability and control.
• Vitech Corporation is a leading provider of model-based
systems engineering and DoD Architecture
Framework (DoDAF) solutions through our CORE
software suite and consulting services. The CORE
environment synchronizes system requirements,
behavioral models, architectures, and design solutions
with system specifications and test procedures. The
resulting integrated executable architecture can be
simulated using COREsim, our discrete event simulator
to gain insight into potential performance issues enabling
better risk and contingency management for any size
project.

Requirements provide the foundation that drives the entire development process. MacA&D and WinA&D provide an
integrated solution to identify, specify, track and manage requirements.
Uniquely Identified Requirements
Each requirement entry is uniquely named and defined. The entry name dialog helps to enforce a user-defined
naming convention. Requirement entries can be grouped together and displayed as either a flat entry list or in a
hierarchical tree structure. Users can zoom in and out of the tree structure or show and hide larger groups of
entries partitioned into namespaces.
User Defined Entry Structure
User-defined definition templates help developers capture a structured collection of fields in each requirement
entry. Typical fields include Status, Priority, Author, Date, Assigned, Category, Effort, Summary and Description.
Developers can define the field type and selection lists making data entry fast and accurate.
Views and Queries
The Requirement Matrix presents requirement information in a spreadsheet-like interface using views and queries.
A collection of column names is referred to as a view, while a query specifies a collection of rows. The selected
view determines which fields of the entry are displayed in each column of the matrix. The selected query displays
each entry satisfying the query criteria as one row in the matrix. In addition to the standard views and queries
provided, custom views and queries can easily be configured.
Generating Reports and Sharing Data
Standard HTML reports nicely format requirement data for printing or sharing with other developers. With the
scriptable report generator, every piece of data is available for generating customized reports. Requirements can
be imported and exported as tab delimited, comma delimited or DIF text files. Data can be shared with other
applications like spreadsheets, project management or scheduling programs.
Traceability
Users can concurrently edit separate product and system requirement documents and link entries between
documents. Requirement entries can also be linked to models, text specifications, code files, test procedures and
documents created with other applications.
MKS Requirements 2005 core capabilities for requirements management:
Built as an extension of MKS Integrity Manager's process and workflow engine, driving
down total cost of ownership and facilitating collaboration between business users and
developers through the use of a common tool;
Flexible and powerful workflow with approval cycles spanning business and development
teams;
Single repository with audit trails maintains a history of requirements and all changes
over time;
Clear and visible connection between development artifacts such as source code and
documentation and associated requirements via change packages in support of IT
auditing and compliance initiatives;
Automatic triggering of "suspect" requirements and development tasks shows real time
impact of requirements change between business users and developers;
Integration with Microsoft Word allowing business users to use familiar authoring tools to
build requirements for import into MKS Requirements 2005;
Hierarchical structure and presentation of requirements provides logical organization,
trace-ability and impact analysis of requirements change;
Historical reporting provides project managers with a view on how a single requirement
or the entire project has changed over time or view the delta of change between any two
points in time; and
Powerful querying, charting and reporting for team communication and senior
management visibility.
The Profesy Suite™, now in its 5th release, puts the
Customer and Business Analyst at the centre of the
development process, by allowing them to collaboratively
develop, verify, simulate, validate and test their
requirements in business terms, all before a single line of
code has been developed. Profesy™ is the first software
development communications platform to implement the
new paradigm of Customer Oriented Software
Development™ (COSD™).
Profesy allowed a Fortune 500 corporation to achieve
285% ROI, and a payback against the initial investment in
less than 6 months.
Define, verify, modify, validate and test your business requirements.
Simulate the behavior of a future product; involve the customer interactively in
scenario design and simulation.
Automatically generate tests that cover 100% of your requirements.
Automatically generate the artifacts necessary for your development team:
Use case diagrams
Flowcharts
Test scenarios
Documentation
Export Profesy™ artifacts into industry leading products:
Mercury Interactive's TestDirector and Quality Center

Prosareq offers everything, which is required in requirements
management according to the most modern software engineering
research. Prosareq offers extremely easy, browser-based user interface,
which makes possible that in addition to developers also customers,
marketing, quality persons and management may actively participate
requirements collection and analysing. Prosareq visualizes
requirements in a clear, consistent web-document, which is concurrently
synchronized with development process. Prosareq makes possible e.g.
that a salesman abroad may through web check if certain customer
requirement has been realized in the current product version or if it will
be realized in the next version.

Team-TRACE is the most efficient, affordable, and easy-touse tool for managing requirements.
Requirements Management
To ensure that all customer requirements are fully met, it is crucial to track each
requirement throughout the lifecycle of the project.
We therefore perform a trace for each formal requirement throughout the different
phases of the project to follow every stage of its development.
