Abstract

This article argues that product models that include the requirements posed on the product have many potential benefits. For example, they facilitate managing the design process so that its goals are met by enabling a continuous follow-up of the requirements satisfaction status and by supporting the analysis of the consequences of design changes. The paper first introduces a concept for a requirements-driven integrated product and process model. The conditions for support for requirements management are discussed based on this model. Finally, two different ways of implementing the concept: by using specialized Systems Engineering/Requirements Management tools or by using PDM (Product Data Management) systems are analyzed. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
