The customer needed a complete end-to-end SDLC process defined and implemented in IBM Rational Team Composer, Rational Requirements Composer, Rational Quality Manager with proper governance mechanisms, version controls, change management and reporting in Insight.
Since National Commercial Bank’s IT department has a heterogeneous landscape of multiple vendors distributed across multiple locations that cater to NCB's requirements which in turn led to challenges in having a consistent project management approach across the IT department. A Collaborative Lifecycle Management approach with IBM Rational RTC solution was used to standardize project management across the department.
