Case Study: Össur accelerates product development and improves traceability with Jama Software's Jama Connect

How Össur Uses Jama Connect to Keep Millions of People Moving

Össur is an Icelandic leader in non-invasive orthopedics, founded in 1971, that develops prosthetics, bracing and supports for millions worldwide. As the company scaled, its in-house, document‑based requirements system became a bottleneck: manually maintaining traceability, reusing common requirements across product variations, and meeting ISO and regulatory design‑control demands was time‑consuming and hindered efforts to become more agile.

Össur implemented Jama Connect for integrated requirements, traceability, test management and impact analysis. The platform made traceability gaps visible in minutes, sped impact analysis from hours or days to minutes, improved test coverage and provided metrics that made testing effort and bottlenecks predictable—shaving days off development. Adoption has been rapid, and Össur is expanding Jama Connect across teams while planning integrations (such as Jira) to further streamline cross‑functional work.
