MALMO, Sweden, June 26, 2002 (PRIMEZONE) -- Telelogic (Stockholm Exchange:TLOG), the leading global provider of solutions for advanced software and systems development, today announced that it has signed a seven-year agreement worth U.S. $3.4 million with Commonwealth of Australia (the Australian Federal Government) for use of Telelogic DOORS by the Australian Department of Defense (Defense). Defense will standardize on DOORS for requirements management and will implement Telelogic's market leading product throughout the department. The agreement also provides options to purchase additional Telelogic products and services.
"This international transaction further demonstrates the feature-rich, industrial strength functionality of DOORS and why it is the industry leading tool for all vertical sectors needing robust requirements management solutions," said Anders Lidbeck, president and CEO of Telelogic. "The agreement also validates that companies in the defense industry are increasingly embracing our solutions for complex real-time systems and software development."
By implementing DOORS, it is possible for individuals to quickly and easily determine where each software application requirement originated, its rationale, the associated cost and trade-off studies, and other requirements that could be impacted by any change. As such, DOORS enables users to conduct a gap analysis between requirements documents to ensure consistency and continuity across the requirements spectrum.
