Requirement Management Tool

Requirements management is a fundamental part of the MOD Acquisition System Operating Model providing the unbroken, top-down linkage of requirements from Defence policy to Defence Lines of Development outputs, that provides the direction for investment plans and ensures that the capabilities generated are coherent and consistent with MOD’s strategic investment.

The Authority has a requirement for the provision of an on-premise Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) software to enable the management of requirements across the Ministry of Defence (Requirements Management) as on on-premise solution. The software will be installed locally on DE&S hosted environments.

The COTS tool shall allow:

• Migration of historical data stored in the current Requirements Management toolset.
• Issuing of instructions, receiving notifications and sharing data generated in the Requirements Management COTS software with other Defence Organisations and Industry Partners' Requirements Management tools.
• Ability to input, edit, maintain, search and link the database of information.
• Providing end to end reporting capability on all requirements management activity.
• Ability to view a full audit history for each object within the system.
• Ability to create templates of initial requirement sets.
