              Abstract: Over the last nine years, requirements   management in the HP OpenView Operations for Windows R&D team   evolved from informal documents to a documented, tool-supported   process. Early quality and content checks ensure that only   well-defined requirements are entered into the system; this is   called the quality gateway. Clear definitions of ownership over the   whole life cycle of a requirement create accountability and enable   the various stakeholders in the organization to track what is being   done, who is working on it, and what the status is.
