Lifecycle solutions resources

Effective application lifecycle management demos
When software development teams can speed time to market while continuously improving, it has a positive effect on the team -- increasing morale, productivity and quality. And these same factors that improve morale also reduce the cost of delivering software. Watch a day in the life demonstration of how a team works more efficiently after incrementally rolling out the IBM Rational solution for Collaborative Lifecycle Management (CLM). The solution for CLM is built on the integrated and open Jazz platform which enabled them to achieve automation of manual tasks and to benefit from the five imperatives for effective ALM: in-context collaboration, real-time planning, lifecycle traceability, development intelligence and continuous improvement.
