The Requirements Portal is a requirements management and traceability tool integrated directly into Altium solutions. It enables teams to create, store, and manage formalized requirements, linking them to electronic designs and verification data. As projects scale, maintaining traceability manually becomes increasingly difficult, particularly when requirements, design data, and verification records are managed in separate systems.

Each requirement is traceable through the entire product development lifecycle and connected to design, verification, and compliance activities. These provide visibility from system design through implementation, verification, handoff, and certification.
