On Tuesday, April 4th, Reading, UK-based SDC Systems Ltd. announced their strategic partnering with Germany's leading Application Lifecycle Management provider Intland Software to introduce the company's codeBeamer ALM to the UK market. Aiming to leverage the immense unfolding market potential for mature Application Lifecycle Management tools in safety-critical product development, SDC will help bring the benefits of traceability, compliance, and enhanced product quality to medical, automotive, avionics, and finance companies across the UK.
Due to an increasingly stringent regulatory environment in safety-critical sectors worldwide, SDC sees increased interest in tools such as codeBeamer ALM that are able to assist companies in efficiently managing their product development lifecycles.
As the role of software competencies expands, codeBeamer ALM provides a competitive advantage for companies working on safety-critical embedded software as it helps them implement mature processes, ensure traceability, and achieve compliance with less cost and effort. Therefore, this next generation ALM tool is a valuable asset for companies currently struggling with antiquated tools and insufficient processes. Users relying on MS Word / Excel or IBM® Rational® DOORS® in their requirements management understand the issues that a complex development environment can hold, where tons of documents are used to collaborate on, store, and manage specifications.
codeBeamer ALM can handle requirements from start to finish in a traceable manner, all the while offering simple data export/import from MS Office tools and IBM DOORS for data consistency.
With its new DOORS Bridge, codeBeamer ALM offers a native integration for the seamless importing and reimporting of requirements, allowing UK customers to deploy a next generation ALM platform without disrupting their existing processes.
"SDC is proud to collaborate with Intland Software as the company steps into the automotive and avionics/defense market across the UK. With codeBeamer ALM, we are offering a proven solution for Requirements Management and Application Lifecycle Management, and easy migration from any existing tool environment such as IBM DOORS, MS Word, MS Excel, and other widely used platforms. We are confident that the capabilities this next generation ALM brings can make it a game changer in the UK market," says Simon Wood, Sales Director, SDC Systems Ltd.
Intland Software has a significant track record in the automotive industry in Germany and Europe with TIER 1 and OEM suppliers successfully using codeBeamer ALM in their development efforts. The company also has customers across the UK in the medical sector.
Charlie Jarvis, the German ALM vendor's Director of Sales UK, Scandinavia, Benelux, adds, "Intland has a deep understading of problems regarding compliance to standards, and quality issues in the automotive, medical, and avionics sectors. This knowledge will now become accessible with codeBeamer ALM to all UK customers, ensuring they have a cost-effective solution to their compliance and safety problems."
