JAMA CONNECT--Case study--Industrial Machinery & Technology, Consumer Electronics, and Energy
Join the Leaders Choosing Jama Connect for Industrial Machinery & Technology, Consumer Electronics, and Energy
Jama Connect enables customers in automation & robotics, consumer electronics, energy, industrial machinery & technology, and railway industries to bring products to market faster, reduce rework and recalls, and increase quality and process efficiency. It empowers systems engineering, product, and software teams to transition from siloed, document-centric management to collaborative and intelligent engineering management. This integrated single source of truth enhances traceability, reuse, and safety by providing real-time access to critical information across teams, significantly improving overall outcomes.
Jama Connect enables automation and robotics firms to meet customer needs and comply with regional and industry safety, quality, and security standards by enabling efficient requirements management, traceability, and regulatory compliance. Jama Connect for Robotics incorporates product development and functional safety best practices based on IEC 61508. Features include best-practice frameworks; templates; example projects; and procedural, export, and configuration documentation. Jama Connect streamlines development, accelerates deployment, and enhances innovation success by ensuring adherence to industry standards and improving development outcomes.
“With our previous process, a requirements document, which could include 30 to 50 individual requirements, could take two weeks to process, requiring the manual gathering of comments, exporting them, and then copying and pasting updates. With Jama Connect, we reduced requirements approvals down to minutes and collaboration is much smoother. We can knock out easy requirements first and then focus on the more difficult ones, streamlining the entire approval process.”

Jama Connect helps consumer electronics companies deliver innovative, quality, affordable products as quickly as possible to stay ahead of the competition and meet customer expectations. In addition, companies must also address potential safety and environmental concerns to avoid legal liability and harm to their reputation in the marketplace. Jama Connect helps ensure successful consumer electronics product development by enabling efficient complex requirements management and traceability.
“Our primary concern is delivering quality products and having loyal customers who are satisfied with our products. We rely on Jama to help us do that. Loss of those customers would signify failure.”

Lead Product Manager, Engineering Product Data, bp
Jama Connect empowers machinery and industrial technology firms to accelerate time to market, streamline risk management, and uphold safety and regulatory standards like IEC 61508. By enabling efficient requirements management and end-to-end traceability, Jama Connect reduces development risk and supports compliance, helping teams build safer, high-quality products in regulated environments.
“The review function has been a lifesaver to get concurrence on requirements quickly and meet tight deadlines. It’s also a great way to document requirements and test plans, which I appreciate. As we move forward, we’ll be able to use our requirements and test plans for the basis of future designs that target our goal of continuing to build better and faster computers.”
Hannah Potter
Systems Engineer, IonQ
Jama Connect enables railway companies to deliver reliable, safe, and secure systems with integrated hardware and software that supports transportation infrastructure and operations. It supports compliance with industry standards such as EN 50128, and IEC 62279 for reducing risk and supporting the development of safety-sensitive products. Jama Connect helps enable successful railway product, system, and software development by enabling efficient complex requirements management, traceability, and standards compliance.
“Introducing automated traceability has reduced manual processes and increasing credibility with assessment bodies. We’ve seen up to 24% reduction in software engineering hours that is directly attributable to using Jama Connect—positively impacting our bottom line. In the future, we expect that the largest gain will likely be realized in a decrease in change management cycle time.”
