We are at your side with a comprehensive portfolio of know-how and many options that cover all disciplines of application lifecycle management. We help you decide how much and what you need where.

Productive interaction between disciplines and well-functioning collaboration between teams is crucial for the success of projects. We look at the complete picture together with you.

Requirements Management

Use cases, customer requirements, functional requirements at system or software level, derivations of features and functions – a well-structured requirements management system makes it easier for you to develop and test your product and thus ensure high quality.

Change management

Planning project teams and resources presents project management with enormous challenges depending on the complexity of your products and the size of your company. Change management is a constant companion in all development phases. It must always and quickly reflect the rapidly changing conditions and factors so that a product is not already outdated before it comes onto the market. Clearly organized and well-implemented change and error management is therefore an important building block for achieving your goals and milestones.

Configuration and variant management

With the help of configurations about the versions of your artifacts, you put together the packages that you deliver to your customers. Global configurations with overarching baselines ensure consistency across all disciplines. This allows you to tell at any time which parts of your products are in use by a customer.

At least when you build variants of your products, this discipline is indispensable. If you work with 150% models and break them down to your customers, you want to have a precise overview of which components a customer is using.

A good structure of your components is also important for modular systems when you integrate systems from building blocks into a product.

Release Management

You want to be able to plan releases and deliveries in a way that your plans meet your roadmaps and milestones. You don’t want to accept any loss of quality. Annoying subsequent deliveries, which cost additional effort and unplanned time, should be avoided.

Design and Model Management

There are a number of opportunities for developing models and designs for systems and software.

In our experience, which of these does most justice to your development is often a matter of taste. Whether you place the models in requirements management or prefer to work with modeling tools, these types of artifacts also have to be given their place in the methodology.

It can also make sense if you consciously decide not to use modeling in your projects.

Test Management

No test, no rollout and no delivery.

The structure of the test artifacts must match the structure of the other disciplines in order to carry out meaningful test analyses and determine test coverage. A good representation of your test methodology with appropriate test execution planning across the various levels at the right time are further aspects at this point.

Link Models

Link models ultimately serve to link all disciplines and artifacts together in such a way that complete traceability can be established. They ensure that you are able to see and follow relations between artifacts.

Reporting

Meaningful project metrics support project leadership and management.

A strong reporting allows you to identify bottlenecks and critical paths at any time so that you have the chance for doing a replanning. In audits, you can show that you have a complete overview of everything that is happening in the project and what the status is.

Deployment

Make sure the integrity of your life environment is protected!

Rolling out updates or completely new software to target systems in a life environment is always a critical process. With the size of a company, it increases in complexity and requires a high degree of reliability.

Our goal is to:

  • Keep the integrity of the live environment,
  • avoid failures and downtimes,
  • Not interrupt work processes.

Automations

Test automation is not only used in DevOps environments. Continuous delivery scenarios cannot be implemented without automation. This is why this area is also part of our programs.
