Requirements Engineering:
Efficient requirements management for successful software projects

Systematic requirements engineering forms the basis of economical, timely and high-quality software development and systematic testing. Consistent, tool-supported requirements management ensures that everyone involved, from stakeholders to developers to management, has a shared understanding of a product’s objectives, features, and quality attributes.

Seamless traceability between requirements, user stories, test cases, and design artefacts is especially essential in complex or safety-critical industries. This reduces risks, shortens development times, and avoids costly missteps.

Our requirements engineering service portfolio

Consulting and Process Development for Requirements Management

We analyse your existing development processes and establish a structured, scalable requirements management system that is optimally tailored to your needs. We consider regulatory requirements, existing processes and your IT infrastructure, as well as best practices from numerous customer projects.

Traceability and integrated toolchain

We implement a closed tool chain that enables traceability across all development artefacts. We evaluate and integrate the appropriate tool into your system landscape, whether it be codebeamer, Polarion, DOORS Next Generation or other solutions, and ensure its efficient use in the development process.

Requirements elicitation and refinement

Our experts elicitate and refine user stories, user requirements and system requirements with your stakeholders. We ensure that the requirements are clear, testable, consistent and prioritised, and that they include validation, reviews and documentation. In highly regulated industries, we take care of structured, standards-compliant requirements elicitation. We derive specific system requirements from standards and laws. These include:

Automotive (ISO 26262, ASPICE)
Medical Technology (IEC 62304, MDR)
Energy/EV-Charging (ISO 15118, IEC-Norms)

Operational Requirements Management

We support you in your day-to-day business by helping you to specify, maintain, manage and modify requirements. This ensures that your artefacts are always up to date, consistent and traceable.

Custom tool extensions and integrations

Take advantage of advanced features and connections between development tools. We develop custom extensions, automations and interfaces, for example for testing, modelling or reporting tools.

Your benefits of professional requirements engineering with ITPower Solutions

Lower your develoment costs

Systematically implemented requirements engineering reduces the effort required for changes in later development phases, minimises error costs and improves change management and the predictability of development cycles and releases. The result? Lower development costs, faster releases and sustainable improvements to your project performance.

Minimise risk by ensuring traceability

Effective requirements engineering provides end-to-end traceability throughout the entire project. Each requirement is seamlessly linked to code implementation and test cases. This enables systematic testing, facilitates audits in regulated industries and establishes a foundation for continuous quality improvement.

Deploy development teams with maximum efficiency

We provide fulls servcie for the entire requirements engineering and management process. This frees up your developers to focus on their core activities. At the same time, you will benefit from our expertise in requirements gathering, specification and management.

External expertise for optimal decision-making

An external perspective can offer valuable insights, best practices, and proven methods that are beneficial to your organisation. We specialise in identifying areas for improvement and generating innovative solutions. With over 25 years of experience in project management, we can help you optimize your requirements engineering.
