Requirements reuse provides aerospace and defense organizations developing complex systems, with the unique ability to share a requirement across projects without absorbing unnecessary duplication of artifacts within a repository. This is a critical capability that improves quality, accelerates time to market and cuts development costs.

The concept of reuse is a familiar notion within the software development realm, but less common when considered in the field of requirements management. There are various definitions and use cases which must be taken into consideration when implementing a solution to address requirements reuse.

This white paper explains how organizations can effectively reuse requirements to speed business innovation, reduce complexity and control costs.
