Recommendation for requirements/backlog prioritization?

What is the recommendation for requirements/backlog prioritization as far as Jazz tools? Do it in RRC(Jazz RM), add RTC (Jazz cm) to the mix? How?

Thank you

Personally I would use either FocalPoint or RTC for the ranking of requirements. Either via pairwise comparison in FocalPoint, or the ranked view in RTC.

This allows the priority/ranking of the same requirement to be different on different projects.

I see. Thank you, Robin.

As you've noted, each tool has some prioritization capability. As Robin points out Focal Point provides pairwise compare which is a really powerful feature for ranking.

In an ideal world, one can use the combined best-of-breed capabilities, i.e.

Focal Point pairwise compare to create the ranking
