Driving Collaboration for Aerospace & Defense Software Teams

For companies in the aerospace industry, reviews of source code and requirements are essential. They enable teams to reduce risk and identify defects as early in the development process as possible, which is especially important in order to comply with functional safety standards like DO-178C & AS9100.

Collaborator empowers teams to conduct peer code reviews early and often, to ensure premier quality throughout the entire application lifecycle. Cross-functional teams can remotely and collaboratively improve on deliverables all in one place. Whether you are a product manager writing and reviewing requirements or a software architect building the latest feature, Collaborator helps you and your team stay on the same page.

In Collaborator, you can build custom review templates to ensure that each peer review matches your team's priorities, as well as any compliance needs. Formalize reviews by setting rules for each template that work in the background and establish required criteria that must be met prior to submission.

How do you measure your review process? With Collaborator, custom reporting is a standard, out-of-the-box capability. Whether you're trying to illustrate your review efforts for a compliance audit or just looking to find the gaps in your process, Collaborator's reporting feature can be leveraged to drive insights and document your team's compliance with code and document review standards.

Rooting out defects early on in the development process is the only way to keep timelines on track and quality from slipping. When it comes to software development, that means organizing teams around processes that embed quality into the culture. We recently hosted a webinar on the topic.

In this session, we discuss:

• Quality trends across the industry
• Success behaviors for quality-focused development teams
• Leveraging peer reviews as a continuous improvement vehicle
