Altium 365 Requirements & Systems Portal

The Altium 365 Requirements & Systems Portal application is a collaborative tool that helps you to derive product requirements from high-level needs, design your system taking into account physics calculations, automatically and continuously verify your product, and let engineers of all disciplines review and converge on optimal solutions in agile engineering cycles. It allows you and your team to work more efficiently when building complex hardware such as satellites, power plants, or autonomous vehicles, etc.

In a product cycle, there are various software tools such as ERP and PLM which aid in product development. Requirements & Systems Portal acts as your central requirements and systems engineering tool, with an AI-assisted and Data-Driven Systems Engineering (DDSE) approach. Requirements & Systems Portal can be used in different parts of the project to streamline your entire engineering process, from requirements definitions to system design, verification and validation. This integration is shown in the image below:

Key reasons (and benefits) to using Requirements & Systems Portal:

• Your current engineering calculations are done in isolated Excel Sheets which are not connected.

• You want to solve an engineering problem and be able to track and trace the history, and also share your work.

• Your team needs Central Data Storage with always up-to-date values.

• You want to be notified automatically when someone changes a design value that will impact your product's requirements.

• You wish to track every parent and child requirement of the system and make sure that they are verified at the end of the product cycle.

• You want to engage the help of AI to write, improve, breakdown, and find inconsistencies in your requirements.

Requirements & Systems Portal provides the following features for you and your team:

• Project Module - where you can centralize all your project management and collaborative operations.

• System Design Module - to develop your product and keep all of your design data up-to-date.

• Requirements Module - which is home to all your specifications and requirements (with an integrated AI assistant).

  When enabled for your Altium 365 Workspace, Requirements & Systems Portal integrates with your design projects through the exchange of design data and formalized Requirements instances. For more information, see App Access & Setup and Working with Requirements in Altium 365.

  In Altium Designer, the Requirements panel is the central location for working with requirements. For more information, see Working with Requirements in Altium Designer.

• Analyses Module - where all your documentation can be written and stored.

• Scripting Module - to execute mathematical simulations or run custom workflows using the Octave or Python Programming Languages.

• Verification & Validation Module - providing a single interface for creating, organizing, and tracking verification activities.
