System and method for automatic standardization and verification of system design requirements

An article, comprising:

• a storage medium having instructions, that when executed by a computing platform, result in execution of a method for automatic standardization and verification of system design requirements in a product development project using a standardization and verification tool embedded in a computer aided design (CAD) application, comprising:
• obtaining a desired standardized requirement from a requirements database using the standardization and verification tool;
• retrieving compliance criteria from the standardized requirement using the standardization and verification tool;
• obtaining one or more components associated with the standardized requirement from one or more data sources using the standardization and verification tool;
• obtaining relevant extracted and derived attributes from the one or more components, associated with the standardized requirement, using the standardization and verification tool;
• comparing the relevant extracted and derived attributes with the compliance criteria using the standardization and verification tool;
• determining whether the relevant extracted and derived attributes substantially meet the compliance criteria based on the outcome of the comparison using the standardization verification tool;
• and
• generating a verification report based on the determination using the standardization and verification tool.

A system for automatic standardization and verification of system design requirements in a product development project, comprising:

• a requirements database;
• one or more data sources;
• and
• a standardization and verification tool embedded in a computer aided design (CAD) application residing in one or more application servers configured to receive requirement information and component information from the requirements database and the one or more data sources, respectively, wherein the standardization and verification tool is configured to obtain a desired standardized requirement from the requirements database, wherein the standardization and verification tool retrieves compliance criteria from the desired standardized requirement, wherein the standardization and verification tool obtains one or more components associated with the standardized requirement from the one or more data sources, wherein the standardization and verification tool obtains relevant extracted and derived attributes from the one or more components associated with the standardized requirement, wherein the standardization and verification tool compares the relevant extracted and derived attributes with the compliance criteria, wherein the standardization and verification tool determines whether the relevant extracted and derived attributes substantially meet the compliance criteria based on the outcome of the comparison, and wherein the standardization and verification tool generates a verification report based on the determination.
