Serlio Software Development Corporation, publisher of CaseComplete's174; Requirements Management Tool (http://www.casecomplete.com), today announced the immediate availability of CaseComplete 2009, the latest requirements management tool that enables businesses to quickly and easily elicit, refine and communicate business system requirements and reduce expensive mistakes in system design. Since 2004, hundreds of companies around the world have relied on CaseComplete for defining and managing business system requirements.
Matthew Terski, president of Serlio, noted that in the current economic environment, managing system requirements effectively is more important than ever. Business systems are vital to
driving down the cost of doing business, commented Terski. Competing in this economy demands that business leaders execute on projects that drive bottom line improvements. They also have
to manage the costs and risks associated with those projects. The cost of failure - or just not fully meeting expectations - is huge. Those kinds of failures can most often be traced
right back to poor requirements. Using CaseComplete can have a huge and positive impact on the quality of requirements and drive down overall project costs.
Use Cases and Requirements Made Easy
CaseComplete is designed to be easy and intuitive to use. Unlike more expensive use case tools, most CaseComplete users can get started without lengthy, specialized training, and can be
productive within a few hours of installing the product.
The CaseComplete Requirements Management Tool employs a use case based approach to requirements definition. Business system requirements are explained in scenarios that describe the
players, the steps to accomplish the business goal, and other related requirements. CaseComplete allows the user to manage the scenarios, define test cases, create use case diagrams
(http://www.casecomplete.com/diagrams.aspx) and free-form diagrams, build screen wireframe mockups and create system requirements
documentation.
CaseComplete 2009 Enhances Project Control 's38; Monitoring
The CaseComplete 2009 release provides significant new features and enhancements, including a project dashboard, project effort estimation, cross reference reports for impact analysis and
third-party tool integration with import and export to Microsoft Excel's174; spreadsheet software. In addition, CaseComplete 2009 includes more pre-built reports and more custom report
options. CaseComplete bridges the gap between planning and execution, noted Doug Earl, Serlio'ss vice president of product development. The dashboard reporting and use case point
estimating give project managers key effort and cost data very early in the project lifecycle. Monitoring those datapoints helps to identify and manage critical-path problems.
