“…every subject was successfully covered by the
most appropriate expert. While I was there at SVL,
the program was flexible enough so we could
address certain topics which I personally identified,
that would benefit me at my home location...”
“…a unique experience, where I
was given the opportunity to
meet with the IMS developers
and testers at the IBM Lab, and
work side by side with them…
It's incredible to meet people
whose work is known
worldwide.”

Requirements Management
• Historically… internal IBM FITS tool
– Used to manage/track customer requirements, customers do not have direct access to
their requirements
• Going forward via Request for Enhancements (RFE) online portal
– Customers can directly manage/track their requirements – greater accessibility
– Plus access and ability to vote/comment/watch other public requirements
• RFE already used by Rational, Tivoli, WebSphere, DB2 for z/OS , DB2 Tools and IMS Tools
