"In
managing the requirements for the AAAV Program, we needed an off-the-shelf
tool that was easy to learn, useable by all of our engineers, and accessible
to everyone, including our on-site customer. The tool had to be implemented
in a short time, be cost-effective, and make use of existing data so completed
work wasn't lost. We looked at several available tools and selected XTie-RT.
With
XTie-RT, we were able to set up a useable database structure, import all
of our data from our existing database, and train all of our users in
just under a month's time. We provided over 200 people with a XTie-RT
client for less than it would have cost to set-up just 10 clients in our
previous tool. And because XTie-RT was PC-based, we could load the client
software directly onto the users' PCs and connect them to the server through
a network connection. Using XTie-RT provided our team with the ability
to manage and trace requirements and to successfully complete our design
reviews on schedule and at reduced risk."
"Tenix Defence Systems invested wisely over seven years ago in Teledyne Brown Engineering's XTie-RT Requirements Tracer application software to assist in management of the technical risks associated with the ANZAC Ship Project. Particular areas of risk identified for the project were the first of class Combat System and Communications Systems (C3I) onboard the ships and the shore-based Facilities designed to provide training to the operators and to maintain the operational readiness of the Combat System, Communications System and Platform Control and Monitoring (C4I) equipments. Teledyne's XTie-RT product has enabled Tenix to successfully manage the systems engineering of these particular technical risk areas at a remarkably affordable cost."
"XTie-RT has proven to be a very cost-effective tool for documenting and managing our system requirements. It provides the essential features of a requirements management tool without the high cost or long learning curve associated with some other RM packages. One feature that is particularly nice is the fully integrated Windows interface and NT server support. XTie-RT is the tool that will allow us to become a better systems engineering organization."
"We are quite happy with XTie-RT. One of the key reasons for selecting this product was ease of use, and this was recently demonstrated when we brought in a consultant and he was able to manipulate our requirements with confidence within hours."
