Enterprise Architect Integration with Jama Connect

Integrating Visual Modeling and Requirements Management tools helps teams to communicate effectively and collaborate on the latest requirements, change sets, and designs. Systems engineers use Enterprise Architect (EA) for engineering activities mapping systems architecture to requirements and to connect visual modelling to requirements, whereas product managers/system engineers use Jama Connect to build and define requirements for complex systems. Integrating Jama Connect and EA helps systems architect gain access to the latest requirement updates and customer priorities (Jama Connect) within EA and product managers get real-time visibility on queries from the design team, sub-requirements logged in EA for further clarification.

The bi-directional communication between product and system development teams enables them to use their preferred tools while aligning processes, workflows, and requirements. The traceability and integration between visual modeling and requirements management tools help development teams to design and build software and systems accurately avoiding tedious manual workarounds.

Enterprise Architect Integration with Jama Connect Use Case


OpsHub Integration Manager helps integrate Enterprise Architect (EA) and Jama Connect bi-directionally in the automated fashion. The teams can access cross-functional data, both historical and real-time in their preferred system with full context. All requirements from Jama Connect sync automatically to Enterprise Architect and all the entities and details associated with the requirement synchronize back into Jama Connect.

Enterprise Architect Jama Connect integration
  • 01

    The Product Manager creates a Requirement and Sub-Requirements in Jama Connect and marks them ‘Ready for Design’

  • 02

    Requirement and Sub-Requirements synchronize to Enterprise Architect (EA).

  • 03

    The System Architect in EA seeks clarifications through comments on Sub-Requirements, and those comments synchronize to Jama Connect. The Product Manager clarifies them in the form of comments on Sub-Requirements, and those comments synchronize back to EA. Thus, the Product Manager in Jama Connect and System Architect in EA collaborate effectively for Requirement’s clarification.

  • 04

    The System Architect designs the Sub-Requirements and attaches the design screenshots as attachments to EA Sub-Requirements, marking it ‘Designed.’

  • 05

    The Design screenshots are synchronized to Jama’s Sub-Requirements as attachments with the status marked as ‘Designed’, which indicates that Sub-Requirements are designed and ready for development.

  • 06

    Based on the approved designs, the development team works on the Sub-Requirements in Jama Connect and marks them ‘Completed’ once the Sub-Requirements are met, which synchronize to EA and reflects ‘Completed’ status for the Sub-Requirements.
