Benefits for Developers of Aviation Technology

Aviation systems engineering

Implement systems engineering best practices with gapless end-to-end traceability to drive aviation systems engineering excellence. Reduce risks and development costs in the delivery of airborne technology. Align and integrate all contributors, engineering disciplines, and development tools in one platform.

Accurate change management & decision tracking

See change as an improvement rather than an obstacle. Seamlessly accommodate and propagate changes to all contributors and simplify change impact analysis. Automatically track decisions made based on accurate real-time data.

Faster compliance

Simplify compliance with aviation regulations using our preconfigured Airborne Electronic Hardware Template. Manage baseline and releases, software & hardware verification, and use baked-in checklists to reduce the effort costs of audit preparation. Easily custom-configure your own trackers and workflows to greatly simplify compliance with DO-178C, DO-154, AMC 20-152A, and ARP4754A.

Features for Avionics Product Development

Integrated Aviation Systems Engineering

Stay organized and transparent in managing the highly complex development processes of aviation software and hardware end products. Integrate separate development streams while reducing the costs of rework. Manage requirements looping in all collaborators and disciplines and replace document-based development relying on Codebeamer‘s seamless MS Office document import-export capabilities. Achieve gapless traceability by associating requirements with downstream artifacts. Build a sound risk management lifecycle. Simplify collaboration between both internal teams and 3rd party collaborators using Codebeamer‘s export-import features and integrations (IBM® Rational® DOORS®, Jira, MS Word, MS Excel, MATLAB Simulink, Jenkins, Cantata, VectorCAST, LDRA, ReqIF, and more).

Aviation Product Line Management

Reduce rework and achieve efficiencies in the engineering of aviation product lines. Easily manage product commonality and variability, no matter the complexity of your products. Integrate development streams in a controlled and transparent way. Cut costs by reusing development artifacts or validated product components. Accelerate product verification and maintain adherence to avionics regulations by reusing project configurations and workflows in the development of multiple product variants.

Security and Approval Workflows

Set project access permissions on different layers and granularity levels for a secure working environment. Rely on user and role-based security features for permission control. Use preconfigured workflows to support DO-178C compliance and define custom artifacts to suit DO-254 and AMC 20-152A requirements. Build gates into your development processes for complete approval control. Manage approvals across stakeholders in a transparent and convenient way. Have your processes request electronic signatures to ensure that important documents and specifications are reviewed before they are acted upon.

aviation-risk-management ALM for Aviation & Defense Systems Development

Avionics Risk Management

Integrate risk management in your development lifecycle to build safe and reliable airborne electronics or other avionics products. Identify and analyze hazards and implement a controlled risk management workflow to eliminate mistakes at the earliest possible step. Use preconfigured risk artifacts or customize your own work items to keep track of risk attributes. Define custom workflows to implement a meticulous risk management lifecycle. Connect risks, requirements, and all other artifacts upstream and downstream to maintain risk traceability. Reduce the effort needed to comply with the risk-related requirements of aviation regulations.

Aviation Product Testing

Use fast, efficient, and accurate automated or manual testing with defined test procedures and controlled execution to verify your aviation products. Trace and manage all product testing and verification activities from requirements to released product, all within Codebeamer. Use parameterized testing, execute tests manually or automatically, and integrate 3rd party testing tools (Cantata, VectorCAST, LDRA) to maintain data consistency. Analyze Test Coverage conveniently. Monitor, analyze, and report on testing data in real time with customizable dashboards.

Best Practices and Repeatable Processes

Configure Codebeamer to support your company’s standard operating procedures. Customize projects, workflows, and artifact attributes to suit your development processes. Visualize and automate workflows, add guards to avoid deviations, and set conditional actions triggered by certain events. Save costs and reduce the number of errors by reusing project configurations, verified processes, and validated requirements as you see fit.

Compliance with Aviation Regulations and Standards

Rely on Codebeamer’s wide range of workflow, audit trail, and reporting features. Use PTC’s Airborne Electronic Hardware Template out of the box to accelerate audits and customize its built-in processes to suit your needs. Achieve compliance with aviation regulations and standards like DO-178C (Software Considerations in Airborne Systems and Equipment Certification) for the software development processes of airborne flight equipment and avionics software, DO-254 (Design Assurance Guidance for Airborne Electronic Hardware), AMC 20-152A (Development Assurance for Airborne Electronic Hardware), or ARP4754A (systems development). Use the baked-in best practices in the Airborne Electronic Hardware Template or define your own workflows and artifacts to suit internal needs and external regulatory requirements. Trace requirements to code, test, and release, and easily access traceability reports. Use baselines for versioning the states of rapidly changing specifications, compare documentation, and pinpoint differences for audit & certification purposes.

Configurable and Extendable Aviation Platform

Rely on Codebeamer’s inherent flexibility and open architecture to support all contributors across the aviation product development lifecycle. Customize work item data types, define workflows, and flexibly adapt project configurations to your needs using a convenient GUI. Use smart import-export features to exchange data between Codebeamer and other elements of your toolchain including round-trip export/import with MS Office. Rely on out-of-the-box integrations like IBM® Rational® DOORS®, Jira, Cantata, VectorCAST, LDRA, Jenkins, or use REST or Swagger API to build custom integrations. Connect the platform to agosense or Tasktop to conveniently dock third-party tools and services into the system.
