Jama Connect is the Leading Solution for Requirements Management and Traceability

The world’s most innovative companies use Jama Connect to manage requirements with Live Traceability™ to improve quality, reduce rework, prove compliance, and get to market faster.

Powerful Features to Transform Your Development Process

Jama Connect is the only software platform that intelligently improves product requirement quality, auto-detects product development risk, and measurably increases performance across multi-disciplinary teams developing products, systems, and software — while still allowing the use of their tools of choice.

Jama Connect – The First Platform to Intelligently Manage & Improve the Performance of the Product Development Process

Companies are struggling to speed time to market and improve quality. Defects, delays, and rework are all too common across product development processes that span multiple functional teams and siloed tools. Attempts to piece together traceability after the fact through reporting have failed to solve the problem.

Jama Connect provides a digital thread across best-of-breed tools to enable the product development process to be measured and improved.

Jama Connect uniquely provides the three key elements required for intelligent engineering management:

Intelligence & AI

Improving the product development process requires the ability to measure development activity against what was expected to auto-detect areas of greatest risk. Only Jama Connect provides a Live Trace Explorer™ which calculates real-time scores for requirements quality, coverage and test verification, to automatically identify areas of risk to be addressed. Jama Connect Advisor™ is the only native natural language processing (NLP) capability in the market to improve requirement quality by applying INCOSE and EARS rules.

Workflow

Only Jama Connect enables you to define the desired development process across best-of-breed tools with a Traceability Information Model (TIM). TIMs are configurable industry-specific frameworks that define the expected development process, ensure industry standard compliance, and enable the measurement of progress and the auto-detection of risk. Jama Connect uniquely brings the entire workflow of development online to create a single source of truth from requirement authoring, collaborating, reviewing, and managing requirement traceability, test coverage, risk assessments, and variants.

Integrations

Jama Connect embraces a best-of-breed world and provides the most integrations with the most robust capability. Our REST API and Excel Functions capabilities are the most complete in the industry to extend integrations to your homegrown tools and Excel files. We are also the only provider to fully support all vendor flavors of ReqIF with our Universal ReqIF capability for co-development, RFP responses and supply chain coordination.

Our customers rely on us to move faster, simplify compliance, and redefine the future.
