Kinetic Jump Software, LLC.

Burnsville, Minn. (2010) – Kinetic Jump Software, a leading software provider for advancing iterative development processes, announced the availability of version 1.1 of AppLife DNA. This release enhances the approach business analysts and other technical team members use to transform requirements analysis and specification authoring into a “living” process where documents can be generated on-the-fly during any stage of an application development project. AppLife DNA reduces development cycle times, project risks, and communication gaps between what the end-user wants and what the system delivers.

AppLife DNA is an innovative requirements management and spec authoring solution that brings product functional specifications to life. Continuous iterative requirements management ensures traceability and effectiveness while significantly reducing risk during the development cycle of requirements elicitation, elaboration, development, and release. AppLife DNA requirements are continuously added, defined, and shared with the resulting specifications being more accurate, complete, and easier to communicate. AppLife DNA allows users to perform the following key functions:

• Define requirements just-in-time throughout the development lifecycle process
• Generate on-the-fly comparison specs between software versions, iterations and snapshots
• Experience at-a-glance visibility on the progress made in defining identified requirements
• Deliver and distribute documents with cleanly marked-up changes for greater readability

AppLife DNA helps stakeholders focus squarely on identified requirements, create user stories, write iterative functional specifications, and effectively communicate change over the duration of the development project. This provides a familiar environment to easily manage, plan, and author software requirements allowing you to continuously expand, improve, and communicate new requirements and necessary changes as your project evolves.

“Our customers have realized that by looking at their requirements documentation differently, and by using AppLife DNA to analyze and document just enough to keep development moving, they can significantly improve stakeholder communications and reduce project risk,” said Brian Haas, President and CEO, Kinetic Jump Software. “With AppLife DNA, our customers positively impact the quality of their resulting software and system solutions.”

Kinetic Jump Software provides comprehensive and innovative solutions that help software teams advance iterative development practices through improved specification authoring and automated software updating. The AppLife solutions are deployed worldwide in over 30 countries by corporations, government, and private industry.
