High Development Standards For Complex IT Solutions
Our Field of Development The creation of technical software for complex systems solutions tailored to the specifications of our customers stands at the centre of our development processes. Our solutions are designed to fulfil the growing requirements of current and future operations management of transport companies. We have standardised the development, maintenance and amendment of systems on three levels:
 |
 |
 |
procedure |
 |
 |
 |
choice of methods to be applied and |
 |
 |
 |
tool requirements. |
Model for Faster Implementation of More Complex Products Funkwerk Information Technologies has been working successfully in accordance with the current V-Modell for more than 15 years. This is the most widely used procedure model which standardises all activities and products involved in the development of IT systems, and provides a platform for achievement of the following objectives:
 |
 |
 |
continuous improvement in quality |
 |
 |
 |
curtailment of costs due to standardised procedures |
 |
 |
 |
improved communication between customers and system manufacturers |
In combinbation with the less generic process description RUP ("Rational Unified Process") the V-Modell describes an iterative, incremental and object-oriented procedure which gives the customer a general idea of the created system at an early stage. For the development of safe systems we apply the CENELEC standards EN 50126, EN 50128 and EN 50129. Our development processes are monitored by our own safety assessment center, which is recognised by the EBA (Eisenbahn-Bundesamt /Federal Railway Authority), to ensure their conformity with these standards.
Tools The tools we prefer to work with are the development tools by IBM Rational, which cover the most important areas of the software development process and the "Automated Software Quality":
 |
 |
 |
IBM Rational RequisitePro for database-aided requirement management in order to follow all customer requirements stipulated in the specifications, from design through to assessment plans |
 |
 |
 |
IBM Rational Rose as object-oriented analysis and design tool which supports the standard of object-oriented modelling (UML) |
 |
 |
 |
ClearCase MultiSite, a multi-location configuration management tool |
 |
 |
 |
ClearQuest MultiSite, for multi-location management of amendments. |
