In depth report looks at user experiences in A&D, Medical Electronics, and Automotive.
Riverside, CT – The report “Requirements-Driven Product Development: Case Studies in A&D, Medical Electronics, and Automotive” was recently released by Collaborative Product Development Associates (CPDA), a provider of critical analyses for PLM decisions.
Over the last decade, requirements management has emerged as a primary driver for quality improvement across product development, by closely coordinating efforts across all disciplines. This has led to the emergence of many requirement management tools, with IBM Rational DOORS – previously Telelogic DOORS – representing the market leader. This document discusses the challenges in implementing DOORS in a rapidly evolving environment and the clear payoffs from using DOORS to integrate across diverse disciplines and to boost the collaborative effort. The case studies include three users from very different businesses – the Astrium division of EADS, the Clinical and Medical Products Group of Cardinal Health, and Chrysler.
