Productivity and Traceability

Telelogic Change 4.7 provides processes for consistent and integrated problem
tracking and change request management

MALMÖ, Sweden and IRVINE, California - 18 June 2007 - Telelogic (Nordic
Exchange/MidCap/TLOG) today announced Telelogic Change™ 4.7, a web-based and
highly scalable software solution that provides problem tracking, change request
and workflow management across the enterprise. Part of the company's overall
application lifecycle management (ALM) solution set, Telelogic Change 4.7 allows
stakeholders ranging from developers to quality professionals achieve better and
more consistent results.

“Organizations are looking for well-integrated solutions that automate more of
their lifecycle processes, incorporate best practices, and improve collaboration
among stakeholders,” said Melinda-Carol Ballou, Program Director for IDC's
Application Life-Cycle Management Research. “Regulatory compliance pressures
demand auditing and management and coordination across disparate development
teams require stakeholder communication and prioritization that can help teams
increase their competitive edge and enable project success.”

Telelogic Change 4.7 fills the need for a consistent, integrated problem
tracking and change request management solution that is easy to use, yet able to
meet the scalability requirements of large and complex organizations. Web-based
and customizable, Change 4.7 is ready to use “out of the box” and has a low cost
of ownership and implementation. 

Telelogic Change 4.7 includes:

- Proven Enterprise Change Processes - co-developed with Philips Applied
Technologies, this out-of-the-box solution provides a low-risk, high-ROI process
package for consistent change request and problem report management across the
organization. It supports process initiatives such as CMMI and quality
initiatives including ISO 9000 and has been successfully deployed to over 900
users across more than a dozen sites.

- Functionality that promotes a more strategic approach to quality assurance
(QA) - Historical data collection and reporting capabilities identify when
defects were introduced, when they were found, how they will impact cost,
quality and delivery, and where process improvement will have the most impact.

- New integrations that support ALM, from requirements to code -- Integration
with Telelogic Focal Point™ and Telelogic DOORS® Fastrak™ improves collaboration
among stakeholders and allows large numbers of change requests and requirements
from multiple stakeholders to be prioritized. This integration enables processes
that are optimized for fast-paced development cycles, providing the most
comprehensive ALM solution for all types of projects, from complex systems and
software to agile development."The process and toolset now available as Change 4.7 Enterprise Change Process
(EC
P) are generic, robust and comprehensive, yet remain intuitive for the end-user
and scalable to meet Change & Problem management demands of our development
projects" said Wim Geerdink of Philips Applied Technologies. "After deployment
we measured a significant improvement in change request throughput times as well
as a reduction of effort spent on Change Management activities. This solution
contributed to the successful passing of various audits, including CMM and KEMA.
Over the years it has proven itself many times in various disciplines and sizes
of projects, including multi-site projects.” The process and toolset have also
been adopted by other Philips divisions and companies.

 “Change is inevitable, whether you are developing a product or implementing a
new IT initiative. What matters most is how the information relating to change
is shared, managed and used to further an organization's best interests,” said
Jesper Christensen, Executive Vice President, Change and Configuration
Management Product Division, Telelogic. “With the latest version of Change,
Telelogic provides an integrated change process and workflow that supports even
the most rigorous process initiatives and governance rules. With this
highly-scalable solution, organizations can share information about new
requirements, problems and bugs in an integrated fashion that improves quality
and reduces bottlenecks.” 

Telelogic Change 4.7 is available now.
