Global Configuration Management - The Game Changer for Requirements Management

A few years ago, IBM introduced the concept of Global Configuration Management (GCM) to its Collaborative Lifecycle Management (CLM) suite of integrated tools. This was a game changer for requirements management. It was not only possible to put requirements under configuration management, but it was possible to save collections of corresponding requirement, test, workflow, source, and model artifacts in a single configuration.
During this presentation we will build the case for component-based requirements management, illustrate Global Configuration Management concepts, and focus on various Component Usage Patterns within the context of GCM 7.0.2 and IBM’s Engineering Lifecycle (ELM) suite of tools.
