Bottom Line
The verification process is often a race against time. Finishing the Requirements Writing your V&V Plan Writing multiple Test Protocols
Test Setup Acceptance Criteria Execution Steps Execution Results
Tracing everything… Knowing which tests… Trace to which requirements… In which protocol… Completely… without missing anything. It’s tedious and error prone.
Capturing and discussing the test execution results… For status meetings… For multiple execution runs and milestones… And tracking actions and issues and notes. No wonder we’re late.

Verification and Validation Planning
Regarding V&V, helping you get your V&V Plan done efficiently without errors is what the Cockpit wants to do. It will “pull” requirements out of your
requirements docs and include them in your deliverable. No re-typing. No missing items. Safer Audits.

Cockpit - A Unified Model for Product Development
The Cockpit’s Dashboard feature is an illustration of the benefits of a Single Unified Model. In this particular screen, the engineer responsible can see everything that matters. With this info, decisions are made a lot quicker…

Protocol Creation and Operational Efficiency
Whether one protocol document or dozens, your verification tests
need to be written and the Cockpit’s templates can help. The
FDA (etc) will begin to see standardization and consistency in
your process.

The Cockpit can “auto-populate” the acceptance
criteria section for you. How? Earlier, you identified tests for each requirement—and the
Cockpit can use them to save a lot of time.

And when you write test methods, the Cockpit is
building libraries of them. They’re reusable and can be incorporated in any number of documents—saving you
even more time.

And when you get further along in your design, the text of your execution steps may
get more detailed. The Cockpit allows you to toggle back and
forth and version items as needed.

Capturing test results is also critical, of course. You could do it on paper alone, but it’s harder to review in your Core Team meetings. The Cockpit makes it easy to not only capture the results, but also
review them.

And there are no restrictions; if a test will verify more than one requirement, the Cockpit will let you capture the results for each. Also notice the
action item column. It can be a big help in tracking issues.

And for that really big meeting, you can show all the results for all the
execution runs/milestones at once.

Functions cannot be isolated;department tools cannot be isolated;
and your requirements cannot be isolated.
The Cockpit is the one system thatbrings them all together—satisfying the needs of
your hardware, software and process development groups.
