Perforce ALM is an application lifecycle management platform that centralizes development artifacts across requirements, testing, and issue tracking. It addresses the visibility and alignment challenges teams face when release cycles shorten, helping organizations maintain traceability, quality, safety, and compliance throughout the product lifecycle. The platform is ISO 26262 certified for functional safety requirements.

Perforce ALM includes dedicated modules for requirements management, test case management, and issue/defect management. Requirements can be captured, reviewed, approved, and reused across projects, with test cases generated directly from requirements. Test management supports prioritization, test runs, and traceability back to requirements, while issue management tracks bugs and customer-reported problems through resolution. The platform provides automated traceability matrices, workflow automation for states and transitions, risk analysis including FMEA, and reporting on project progress and productivity. Integrations include Jira, Jenkins, P4, Slack, and a REST API for connecting additional tools.

Perforce ALM is designed for development teams needing end-to-end lifecycle visibility and compliance documentation, particularly in regulated industries. Teams can adopt the complete suite or begin with individual modules and expand over time. A free trial is available, and Perforce offers professional services for implementation, support, and training.
