With DOORS Next, you can improve time to market, product quality and lower costs through the comprehensive management of requirements from beginning to end of your development project. Facilitate dynamic traceability of requirements: Today’s products are vastly more complicated than their predecessors, meaning engineers have to deal with an avalanche of design requirements. You need a solution that provides complete transparency and traceability to changes and their impact on your development to properly manage project scope, verification and compliance. Manage versions and variants in one place: Today’s hyper-competitive marketplace requires you leverage your development data and work as much as possible to improve time-to-market and product quality. You need a solution that provides a configuration management mechanism to create versions and variants of products, systems and subsystems while maintaining relationships between the original and the new. . Build compliance into your end-to-end engineering processes : By developing on a platform that integrates project stages for complete traceability, achieving compliance becomes less complicated. All activity and changes in requirements can be viewed at any time, showing relationships throughout a project. The documentation is built-in and customizable to help teams conduct reviews and audits more easily. Enable global collaboration with agile workflow tools: Build a smarter development ecosystem using agile tools that promote access, visibility and transparency of your projects across geo-dispersed teams and supplier networks.
