Concept

Requirements management tool

Development of an online-based tool for managing and tracking requirements in engineering projects. The system offers the option of registering as a user and creating projects. Other users can be invited to your own project and assigned different roles.

The requirements managed with the tool are generally assigned to categories. There are templates for different types of projects that can also be used as a checklist.

Depending on the user role, new requirements can be created or existing ones changed; it is also possible to comment on requirements.

The management of requirements is list-based and has a hierarchical structure. This means that a requirement can be derived from a higher-level requirement. The system can visualize these dependencies as a diagram.

Each requirement can be assigned various attributes that can be used to classify and evaluate the requirements.

It is possible to revert to an older version of the project requirements at any time; the tool offers a 1:1 comparison of two different versions with the respective changes identified.

Container adjusting mechanism

The customer had a modular system for containers that could be connected to each other (coupled) and used in various environments.

These containers were usually brought to their destination by truck and then aligned with one another using a lifting system integrated in the vehicle so that the connection points could be positioned relative to one another and the coupling could be carried out. This coupling could be made for several containers arranged next to each other.

For a special application, the load capacity of the existing system was increased while the weight was reduced at the same time, and a positioning system was designed that made it possible to lift and align containers manually, i.e. without an external energy source. This means that instead of a transport vehicle fully equipped with a lifting system, the container could now simply be placed at its approximate position and the positioning could be carried out independently of the vehicle.
