Rational Requisite Pro

My company wants to use Rational Requisite Pro to manage their requirem开发者_运维技巧ent documents, and they want me to come up with a plan.

I need to know where can I go to start this process?

---

I would start by asking what problem the company expects Requisite Pro to solve for them. More often than not companies select a tool as a band-aid for a process that's fundamentally broken to begin with. If an organization doesn't fix the real problem then they'll end up just spending a bunch of money and get little value out of it.

My 2 cents.

Sounds like downloading the trial and looking at the docs would be a good place to start:

Unless some eejit manager has already made the decision, I'd wonder if a survey of tools would be a good idea. Sometimes an open source tool can be better than a licensed product. For example, Subversion is the hands-down winner over ClearCase, the Rational source code management system. Perhaps that will be the case here as well. You owe it to yourself and your company to know who leads in this space and what open source alternatives there are:
