About ReqView
What is ReqView?
ReqView is a desktop-based requirements management tool built for hardware and software engineers. It helps teams capture, organize, and track requirements, risks, and tests using the V-Model process. The tool supports end-to-end traceability and audit trails, making it suitable for safety-critical industries.
Who is ReqView for?
ReqView is ideal for small to midsize companies in medical devices, aerospace, defense, automotive, railways, robotics, and electronics. It is not designed for large enterprises needing extensive collaboration features or advanced reporting; it is a lightweight alternative to tools like DOORS at a fraction of the cost.
What problems does ReqView solve?
It replaces error-prone document-based requirements management with a structured, traceable workflow. Teams can import documents from Word, define requirements with custom attributes, link verification and validation (V&V) activities, and manage baseline versions in Git or SVN. This makes compliance with standards like ISO/IEC/IEEE 29148:2018 easier.
Real use cases
Engineering teams use ReqView to maintain traceability from system-level to component-level requirements, generate reports for audits, and collaborate with developers via integrations with Jira, Azure DevOps, Sparx EA, and ReqIF.
