Traditionally, organizations have relied on document-based specifications stored in Word files, PDFs, or spreadsheets. While this approach offers flexibility and human-readability, it also introduces inconsistencies, outdated information, and inefficiencies. It’s time for a change. Our experts have created a white paper that discusses moving from document-based to model-based specifications while also providing practical tips on extracting specifications from documents and importing them into any Requirements Management App.

By reading our white paper, you can learn: 

  • Why should you move away from traditional document-based to structured specifications?
  • How can you reduce manual work when extracting specifications from documents?
  • How can our step-by-step approach help you to structure specifications better?
  • Why linking specifications to objects, activities, and standards offers you benefits.
