Abstract

Lifecycle management provides a generic frame of reference for systems and methods that are needed for managing all product related data during the product’s lifecycle. This paper reports experiences from a case study performed in the automation industry. The goal was to study the concept of Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) and gather and analyse first experiences when a company is moving towards distributed application lifecycle management. The results show that several benefits were gained when introducing an ALM solution in a case company. This research also produced a first version of an ALM framework that can be used to support practical ALM improvement efforts. In this case, the experiences show that lifecycle activity should manage artefacts produced in different stages in a project lifecycle and keep all activities in synchronised. The challenge resides in how to generate efficient company-specific implementations of ALM for complicated real-life situations.
