RMS is indispensable in the design and development of complex systems

It lowers the risk of poor deliverables caused by weak requirements, wasted effort from the wrong tooling, knowledge fragmentation or key-person dependency, and budget overruns.

Advantages

  • 01

    Flexible setup

    The standard information model of requirements in a project is easily customized to suit the user’s tasks: attribute composition, connections, restrictions. It is possible to create entities for storing master data.
  • 02

    Professional tools

    Affordable, professional-grade tools for a highly efficient, requirements-driven development process.
  • 03

    Web access to requirements

    It’s easy to connect any project participant to development, approval or review - no software installation required, just send a link to the requirement.
  • 04

    Performance

    The system scales to store and manage hundreds of thousands of requirements, without additional software or hardware costs.

How we compare to other tools

Engio RMS is a strong alternative to Siemens Polarion, HP ALM, PTC codeBeamer, Cradle 3SL, DOORS NG, and IBM Rational RequisitePro for requirements-centric engineering.

Product news

3.24. MCP server, RAG, forms

3.24. MCP server, RAG, forms

Semantic search for duplicates, analogs, and impact analysis using the built-in RAG engine with remote and local LLMs. A built-in MCP server hooks into AI agents and automates custom AI workflows. Rules can drive field visibility and required fields from other attribute values on forms. Saved custom filters speed up recurring queries. Bulk-create and bulk-remove traces between engineering artifacts.

3.23. Risks and work calendar

3.23. Risks and work calendar

Risk management adds a register, classification, links from risks to requirements, heat maps, and tracking of how risk parameters change over time. A Recycle Bin lets you park sensitive artifacts instead of deleting them outright. Calendars and work schedules fine-tune user and team availability so SLAs, shifts, and lifecycle metrics stay accurate.

3.22. Working time countdown

3.22. Working time countdown

Built-in timers capture effort when you switch tasks or complete test reports. Custom tabs organize system and user attributes on forms. Hierarchical iterations support arbitrarily deep plans, while dependencies between iterations keep rolling plans in sync with less manual work.
Learn more
3.21. Project tree

3.21. Project tree

The project tree summarizes large, deeply nested structures. New layout options include right-hand lists and grouping links into folders. Plan vs. actual analytics and historical charts (e.g., story and task owners) are easier to build. Documentation tables can pull parameters from the section where they are embedded. Git access now supports SSH keys.

3.20. Hierarchical master data

3.20. Hierarchical master data

In this version, users can create their own hierarchical directories, common to all projects or with their own data for each project. A new type of custom attribute has been added - File, which allows you to attach files to any entities. Implemented automatic authentication using domain login, without prior import of accounts. Added multiple selection of rows in views using Shift. Added the ability to link multiple commits to a build and much more...

3.15. Script automation

3.15. Script automation

The unlimited customization possibilities of Engio ALM are implemented using script automation - a mechanism that allows you to execute an arbitrary script as a result of events, according to a schedule, as a validation of values, etc. You can modify any data and request data from any external sources. When working with documentation, use Terms; the system will highlight the term and provide a transcript for interested parties. Identify duplicate or similar requirements and dependencies on the Similar tab.

FAQ

Engio RMS integrates with Jira, Redmine, YouTrack, and other trackers. It creates a requirements-driven delivery backlog and syncs it to your tracker as tasks. Status, effort, and assignee comments are synchronized back so you can monitor implementation progress directly in RMS.

Engio RMS is focused on the verbal form of describing requirements, expressed in text, tables, pictures, etc. The product has built-in support for modeling tools (PlantUML, draw.io), but rather for the purpose of improving communications or recording technical decisions made. Systems such as Sparx Enterprise Architect and Cradle 3SL have significantly more capabilities for modeling and code generation.

Implementation is usually split into two stages: pilot use and production use. During the pilot, teams explore RMS and configure it for organizational processes and project requirements with support from Engio or a partner. After setup and knowledge transfer, your team can run the system independently and create internal training and work instructions as needed.
