BetaRational Software | IBM solutions for software and systems deliveryWhat Does “Shared Administration” Really Mean? Sharing a Jazz Team Server – Less server infrastructure to manage Common user Administration – Only one place to define and administer users Lifecycle Projects – Easily create and manage your “projects” that use requirements, design, change management, and quality management7 © 2012 IBM Corporation

BetaRational Software | IBM solutions for software and systems deliveryDesign and Lifecycle Projects Creating project areas within a lifecycle project – The Lifecycle Project Administration application uses the notion of a lifecycle project to manage your project areas. – A lifecycle project groups multiple project areas that collaborate with each other. Rather than managing each project area separately, you can manage all of the project areas from this central lifecycle project. – After associations are established between project areas, you can link their artifacts to establish traceability across the requirements, design, development, and testing phases of the application development lifecycle.8 © 2012 IBM Corporation

Rational Software | IBM solutions for software and systems deliveryShared Designs and Comments Engage team members in the design process with Web client access to designs Improve quality with in-context design collaboration through commenting and visual markup Comments can be posted and accessed from Web client and RSA desktop client10 © 2012 IBM Corporation

Rational Software | IBM solutions for software and systems deliveryAutomate Design Reviews  Automate manual and time consuming design reviews  Users notified via email of the review and access their reviews from the dashboard  Design Manager tracks progress of design review  Link review to Team Concert work items for more formalized approvals12 © 2012 IBM Corporation

Rational Software | IBM solutions for software and systems delivery Dashboards Dashboards provide a quick way to stay on top of project activity DM dashboard viewlets for collaboration (recent links, comments, most active, design reviews) Create mashup dashboards with viewlets from CLM & DM applications 13 © 2012 IBM Corporation
