Turn customer intent into requirements engineers can review.
Use KlugSpice to prepare stakeholder, system and software requirements from your project sources. Check the wording, make acceptance criteria explicit and keep open engineering questions visible before approval.
Start with the source and the engineering intent.
A useful requirement begins with more than a sentence to rewrite. Customer requests, approved requirements, interface information, project limits and terminology provide the context for deciding what a system or software element must do.
KlugSpice uses the selected sources and agreed templates to prepare drafts. Source references let reviewers check whether the proposal reflects the original need and where an interpretation needs confirmation. An unanswered question should stay visible until the responsible engineer resolves it.
- Provide the relevant customer input and approved source requirements.
- Include interfaces, operating conditions and known project constraints.
- Agree the terminology, requirement template and review responsibilities.
Keep stakeholder, system and software work connected.
The Requirements Suite supports work across SYS.1 Requirements Elicitation, SYS.2 System Requirements Analysis and SWE.1 Software Requirements Analysis. Select the level needed for your task and use approved sources when deriving lower-level requirements.
For a practical review, ask whether the system requirement expresses the agreed product behaviour and whether the software requirement fits its allocated responsibility. KlugSpice can prepare drafts and source links; your engineers decide whether the decomposition and technical choices are appropriate.
Find the questions hidden in the wording.
The Requirements Suite checks ambiguity, duplication, conflicts and missing information. It examines verifiability and testability and can prepare acceptance criteria. These findings give reviewers specific issues to resolve before a draft moves forward.
Carry the decision into the approved work.
A review needs the proposed requirement, its sources, quality findings and acceptance criteria in view. KlugSpice supports review, approval and controlled baselining so the accepted result can become the reference for subsequent engineering tasks.
Resolve the findings
Check the intended behaviour, remove ambiguity and record decisions on the remaining technical questions.
Check the connections
Review the source, architecture and test links so the draft fits the surrounding engineering work.
Approve the result
Apply your review process and return approved work through the agreed tool connections and permissions.
Review what a changed requirement leaves behind.
When an approved requirement changes, KlugSpice follows its connections to lower-level requirements, architecture and tests to identify potential impact. Reviewers can decide which records need revision and which existing results remain relevant.
For the proposed 80 ms parking target, the old response-time result does not establish that the new limit is met. The team needs to review the test expectation and decide what verification to repeat. Use a representative change like this in a pilot to evaluate drafting quality, review effort and the usefulness of the findings.

What teams ask before they start.
What inputs should we bring to a requirements demo?
Bring selected customer needs or approved source requirements, your template and terminology, and relevant interface or project constraints. A representative change or quality problem gives the review a concrete focus.
Can KlugSpice improve requirements we have already written?
Yes. The Requirements Suite can check existing requirements for ambiguity, duplication, conflicts, completeness and testability. Engineers review the findings and approve any resulting changes.
Are generated acceptance criteria automatically approved?
No. They are prepared for engineering review. Reviewers need to confirm that the criteria express the intended behaviour, use suitable conditions and can be verified within the project.
Bring a requirement. Follow the evidence.
