Siemens Polarion REQUIREMENTS helps teams gather, write, approve, validate, and manage requirements for complex systems across project lifecycles. Its LiveDocs are structured online specification documents for working with requirements. Automatic change control supports traceability, and teams can reuse or branch information across sequential or parallel projects and product lines. Permissions can be assigned by role, user, project, or group, with LDAP access supported. Custom workflows and templates accommodate Agile, lean, traditional, hybrid, Scrum, Kanban, FDD, and RUP methods; Siemens says these can support processes aligned with FDA, FAA, CMMI, ISO, IEC, and SPICE standards. Connectors include Jira, Azure DevOps, IBM DOORS, MATLAB Simulink, Teamcenter, and Mendix, alongside REST and web service APIs. Requirements can be exchanged through Word, Excel, and ReqIF. Deployment options include customer-managed on-premise Polarion ALM and cloud-based Polarion X. Pricing is on request, and installation includes a 30-day evaluation license.
