Anselm as the Agent for Jama Connect® Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) Solution

What is ALM, and why do businesses need to implement ALM management?

ALM (Application Lifecycle Management) is a software engineering methodology designed to comprehensively manage the entire lifecycle of applications, from initial concepts and requirements to development, testing, deployment, operation, and eventual retirement. ALM focuses on coordinating and integrating various stages of the software development process to ensure the smooth operation of the entire lifecycle and the delivery of high-quality applications.

 

Why do businesses need to implement ALM systems?

With the surge in the Internet of Things (IoT) and AI applications, industries such as automotive systems, medical devices, aerospace, etc., are incorporating more and more applications into their products. These applications must adhere to strict regulatory requirements, such as ISO 26262, Automotive SPICE, ISO 13485, ISO 14971, FDA 21 CFR Part 11, etc., to ensure product compliance with quality standards and safety. ALM systems provide a rigorous, traceable, and auditable software development process to support software development activities.
