Publication number: 20120226519Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for assessing a risk associated with a requirements document and/or identifying one or more resources that can be used to manage the risk. A requirements document can be analyzed to extract elements from the requirements document into relationships. A relationship interface can be generated that includes the relationships for the requirements document. Information, associated with an entity or otherwise, relevant to the requirements document can be organized into risk issues using the relationships interface. One or more resources may be identified for the information relevant to the requirements document and an interface can be provided between the identified resource and a manager of the requirements document.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 2, 2012Publication date: September 6, 2012Applicant: Kilpatrick, Stockton & Townsend LLPInventor: Shannon L.
