Using RTC for planning the development of hardware IP

My team is working on a project for which we think RTC may be a good fit. However, we are having difficulty figuring out the best mapping of our specific objects into RTC objects. The goal of this project is to provide planning capability to an organization that develops hardware IP. IP developers create software models of the IP, and these models are released in "model kits" for customers to use in designing chips.

Each model kit release has certain "capabilities", such as "Floorplanning", "Physical Layout", etc. Each model kit release also has a quality level, such as "preliminary" or "final". How can we add attributes (ie. capability and quality level) to releases within RTC?

The easiest object to customize is a "workitem".
I'd suggest defining your own type of workitem called something like
"Model Kit Release", and then you can use the workitem customization
capabilities to give it a quality level attribute.

You can also extend the Jazz Team Server with a new "model kit
component", but that is a lot more work.

Cheers,
Geoff
