Product Details

What is Jama Connect?

Jama Software® is focused on maximizing innovation success in multidisciplinary engineering organizations. Jama Connect® requirements management software is used to minimize the risk of defects, rework, cost overruns, and recalls in fields such as fuel cells, electrification, space, software-defined vehicles, and surgical robotics. Jama Connect enables engineering organizations to manage their development processes by leveraging Live Traceability™ across tools to measurably improve outcomes. The company states its customer base spans the automotive, medical device, life sciences, semiconductor, aerospace & defense, industrial manufacturing, consumer electronics, financial services, and insurance industries.

The #1 problem managing the product development process is identifying risk early across siloed teams and tools.

Jama Connect® is designed to improve product requirement quality, auto-detects product development risk, and measurably increases performance across multi-disciplinary teams developing products, systems, and software — while still allowing the use of their tools of choice. With Jama Connect, teams can identify in real time:
Poorly written requirements with recommended improvements
Missing, changed, or late requirements
Gaps in verification and validation test coverage
Changes made in one engineering discipline that impact others

Product, Systems, and Software Development Teams that Use Jama Connect Perform Better.

With Jama Software's proprietary Traceability Scores™, teams can measure traceability to improve quality and accelerate time to market.

Jama Connect enables these six critical things for development success:
  1. Intelligently improve requirements
  2. Bring all collaboration and reviews online
  3. Unify test case management
  4. Auto-detect development risk
  5. Maintain product state across tools
  6. Manage product complexity and scale

  • Positive - ROI - This is a hard estimate, but let's say we save at least 70% of email back and forth over 3 timezones using Jama in a project.
  • Negative Impact on ROI - too early to tell really since we are running Jama for a year only.

  • Jama has provided the ability to reuse requirements cross-domain which has helped streamline the requirements development process. This saves money and time.
  • Jama has increased the accuracy of our requirements definition by providing requirement templates for common nonfunctional requirements (screening requirements, maintenance and reliability, etc)

  • We are moving from multiple Tenders for an Asset to single Tenders for our sector-branch. Hard numbers cannot be quoted yet, but will be at least in the 7 digits per assettype.

  • This is a flexible tool that can cover the need of the diverse Stakeholders in the different projects we have.
  • That it is web based increases the acceptance because of low effort needed to reach the information.
  • By using this tool customers have interest in getting them selves away from a Document centered development in to a more model/data base centered one.
  • It is easier for every discipline group to think about repositories and libraries when all the information is in one place, ready to be used by the individual projects.

  • Jama Connect has eliminated some basic redundant work and made requirements management and traceability much easier to maintain. This saves time on projects.
  • Collaboration features have made it easier for teams to work on content without having to meet together to make progress.
  • The user interface is not completely intuitive and requires some learning curve for even basic use.

  • Made it easier to know what I'm responsible for, from a work task perspective.
  • Allowed leads/managers to assign work in a more educated manner by seeing workload, etc.
  • Allows clear deliverables and more accurate work estimates, since we can look back at previous examples (assuming there are some).
