Composing and managing requirements
You can use the Requirements Management (RM) application to define the requirements for
your system or application, and then manage those requirements by using mechanisms such as
traceability links, tags, attributes, and dashboards.
Joining a requirements project
To join a requirements project, a project administrator must use the web client to add you to the project as a team member. You can then use web client to open a project from your User Dashboard.
Defining requirements
You can use rich-text artifacts to define requirements and requirements documents. You can also create and link to supporting artifacts, such as business process diagrams, use case diagrams, and wireframes, to elaborate requirements and put them in the broader context of the system and business processes.
Managing requirements
You can manage requirements by using traceability links, tags, attributes, filtering, workflows, and dashboards. With these capabilities, you can create relationships between requirements and other artifacts, categorize requirements, assign properties to requirements, and monitor relationships and status among team applications. To learn how to optimize requirements management, reduce rework and avoid delays by using AI from Watson, go to the IBM Engineering Requirements Management site .
Managing artifacts by using configurations in the RM application
You can manage changes to artifacts and work in a parallel, multi-stream environment by using configuration management capabilities. These capabilities include creating baselines of projects at specific points in time, reviewing and approving changes to artifacts, and making changes visible to other teams or individuals.
