Requirements Management / ALM
Application Lifecycle Management: tracking requirements from conception through design, testing, deployment, and service. Includes tools like MKS Integrity and Intland Codebeamer for safety-critical traceability.
Why it matters
Regulated industries (aerospace, medical, automotive) require proof that every requirement is tested and verified. ALM platforms enforce this traceability; without them, recalls and regulatory fines result.
