Introduction to Requirements Driven Development

Process Overview: Requirements Driven Development (2G4) BOM Changes

Process Overview: Requirements Driven Development (2G4) – Document Changes

Process Overview: Requirements Driven Development (2G4) – VC Changes

Process Overview: Requirements Driven Development (2G4) – Material Changes

Requirements Driven Development enables users to link requirements to product life-cycle management objects such as engineering bills of material, document info records, materials, and configurable bills of material.

Usually, a systems engineer creates requirements models to link different products to block definition diagrams.

To consider the new requirements and track changes on the existing requirements, specific requirements are assigned to the relevant objects in ERP by the responsible roles. A BOM engineer can link requirements to BOM header in the Maintain Bill of Material app. A design engineer can assign requirements to document info records in the Manage Document app. A variant configuration product modeler can enable requirement driven development by linking requirements to configuration profile and high-level dependencies in a configurable BOM. A master data specialist can assign requirements to materials in the Manage Product Master Data app.

Benefits

This process helps you to:

  • Use linked requirements to PLM objects to ensure consistency between defined requirements and changes during product development

  • Plan for intended changes with the support of impact analysis

  • Ensure the fulfillment of all requirements during the product-design process

  • Link the PLM object to block definition diagrams
