It is an established fact by now that the main cost factor in IT projects are ambiguous requirements. It is all the more remarkable that this issue is still being concealed in many IT projects and that the implementations are signed by the stakeholders without detailed knowledge of the matter. This missing coordination inevitably leads to an undesirable increase of work and costs.

ARCWAY´s  well-proven business-process oriented requirement management provides modern companies, such as Berliner Wasserbetriebe or Gegenbauer, with coordinated specification documents as the foundation of IT projects and makes possible efficient implementation and administration of requirements.

Exactly how much potential can be capitalized by using ARCWAY in your IT project is clearly depicted by the new Potential Analysis for IT Projects. In addition, this analysis provides the possibility to request an individual return of interest document for the complete adaption of the ARCWAY Method in your project. 

ARCWAY Certified Partners successfuly develop individual customer solutions on the basis of the ARCWAY Method. Beginning with StratOz, we will introduce one Certified Partner in detail in every newsletter.

Furthermore, the newsletter will inform you of all innovations concerning ARCWAY Cockpit as well as a schedule of training appointments.

I would be pleased to receive your feedback.

Sincerely,

Peter Aschenbrenner
