This document discusses using DevOps and social requirements engineering for large-scale projects. It introduces the Requirements Bazaar platform for enabling communication between users and developers on requirements. Users can create components, comment, vote and post requirements. DevOps promotes collaboration between stakeholders, automation, and alignment of objectives. The WEKIT project aims to improve maintenance of aircraft using improved documentation and collaboration between maintenance personnel.

13. WEKIT Use Case
Aircrak maintenance – Safety at the sharp end – CommunicaYon and
Shared mental modelling during Shik handover
Procedure: accurate, reliable communicaJon of task-relevant
informaYon across shik changes, ensuring conYnuity of safe and
