Case Study: Fortune 100 Semiconductor Company Achieves Faster Mobile Product Development and Cost Reduction with Jama Software (Jama Connect)

Requirements Reuse Helps Major Semiconductor Manufacturer Streamline Mobile Technology Projects

A Fortune 100 semiconductor company focused on mobile technologies — with more than 2,100 engineers and distributed teams working on three to five parallel projects lasting six months to a year — needed to stop reinventing the same requirements and better trace configurations across product generations. With up to 50% exact reuse between projects, redundant workflows and lack of robust requirements management were slowing schedules, increasing costs, and risking inconsistencies across designs.

The company adopted Jama Connect as the standard for requirements, risk, and test management, building a shared library of requirements, use cases, and test cases to reuse across projects. This streamlined planning and development, improved traceability, and enabled continuous improvement — cutting costs, accelerating development (what used to take three people six months now takes one person one month), and achieving up to 50% reuse of development and design requirements.
