CIMdata Survey Shows the #1 Digital Thread Objective is Live Requirements Traceability Across Engineering Disciplines
After-the-fact reporting is failing to deliver Digital Thread results. Only Jama Connect delivers a live and measurable Digital Thread across best-of-breed tools with proven improvement to the product development process.
Jama Connect is the Only Requirements Management Software with a Robust REST API and Live Traceability™ to Enable DevSecOps
Leading DoD contractors are relying on Jama Connect as the cornerstone of their DevSecOps strategy for two main reasons:
“Jama Connect’s API enables us to connect every single piece of the puzzle across the DevSecOps pipeline.” – Top 10 Aerospace & Defense Company
SysML diagrams and MBSE data can be synched into Jama Connect, to view, trace, baseline, version, audit and review across all engineering disciplines. MBSE efforts are no longer isolated, but fully integrated into the entire development process, ensuring alignment across engineering disciplines.
Digital Engineering progress has been blocked by DoD programs mandating DOORS/DNG. Only Jama Connect can import and export all top vendor flavors of ReqIF, freeing you to achieve Digital Engineering.
Jama Connect for Air, Space, Sea, and Defense Programs
Innovative organizations building the A&D systems of the future use Jama Connect aerospace and defense software for their digital engineering practice to enhance stakeholder collaboration and ensure a shared vision across the development lifecycle. Jama Connect’s requirements management creates a digital thread for systems engineering, ensuring mission success.

“A document-centric approach often requires a gatekeeper and really limits collaboration – that creates a bottleneck. With Jama Connect, all our development teams can work together from anywhere with a shared collaboration hub.”
David CubbageDirector, LEO Satellite Engineering and Production
“Review Center is facilitating communication. It has ensured a shared view of the world and agreement from all stakeholders. There are no surprises anymore. Jama Connect enables us to review documents and make decisions easily with everyone coming to a shared conclusion.”
Craig GrocottHead of Systems Engineering, Teledyne e2v
“We completed an entire design review in three weeks. Without Jama Connect, it would have taken us two months. If we had done this using Word and Excel, or purely in meetings, this would have taken significantly longer. This was a major early win for us.”

Requirements Management in Jama Connect provides a data-driven requirements architecture for your digital engineering environment, speeding the systems development process, strengthening alignment, and ensuring quality and compliance. Create, derive, review, validate, and verify aerospace requirements with a single source of truth. Configuration management is automated with immutable audit trails and change management is built-in and designed for a streamlined workflow.
• Support complex requirements hierarchies and flowdowns
• Import data from static documents or legacy tools
• Have a single source of truth for clear visibility throughout the development process
• Iterate in real time for informed decision making and consensus
• Support agile and industry-specified development methodologies
• Reuse validated requirements to quickly replicate features across systems
Easily analyze requirements traces and create traces to any type of data in a single view. Users can be constrained to create traces consistent with a definable relationship model. Trace relationships alert the team when changes are made that impact other items.
• Reduces risk inherent in manual trace link management
• Facilitates end-to-end impact analysis
• Reduces time spent to create trace reports
• Assists in complying with industry standards
• Ensures what is being delivered matches the stated needs
Track all changes to aerospace risk management information within the system with customizable, real-time reporting, and baselining.
• Create document export templates for Word, Excel, CSV, PDF, HTML
• Automate baseline comparison reports
• Create real-time project dashboards
• Custom report creation using BIRT and Velocity
• Connections to BI and 3rd party reporting tools supported
Transfer requirements and associated metadata between customers and suppliers to create an ongoing exchange of requirements throughout the product development or migrate requirements data from other ReqIF-compliant tools using the Requirements Interchange Format industry standard.
• Ease collaboration across supply chain by using OMG international standard ReqIF
• Use Jama Connect while effectively interfacing with other aerospace requirements management tools
• Avoid manual rework through roundtrip requirements over multiple interactions, loss free, and without duplication
• Verify that all requirements are met, regardless of their original source
Simplify the review and approval process by capturing collaborative feedback from stakeholders, including voting for priority and electronic signatures for approver roles.
• Increase participation in the review process
• Retain an historical record of all decisions made and by whom
• Provide visibility sooner in the review process
• Generate approval-ready content for e-signature faster
• Collaborate more often and capture tacit knowledge
Streamlines capture of traces between requirements and V&V data. Ability for continuous feedback loop from V&V activities to ensure the system is meeting the specifications and operational needs of the user.
• Create and organize test plans, test cases, dashboards and reports to manage testing in real-time
• Execute test plans that directly associate with requirements and features
• Capture pass-fail results
• Capture defects and automatically relate to test runs and test cases
• Streamline test results review adjudication
• Generate out-of-the-box test execution reports
In the increasingly complex, competitive, and rapidly evolving aerospace and defense industries, market forces are creating new challenges for systems engineering teams. Jama Connect is designed to help teams:
