Traceability

Your traceability matrix, alive.

Somewhere right now, an engineer is updating an Excel sheet that maps requirements to implementation — and hoping nothing moved since last week. The tools built for this cost more per user per year than most teams' entire tool budget. Pragma does traceability the way it should work: as the structure of the plan itself.

"Integrate PSP SDK" exists because of "Checkout v2 live", which answers "3-D Secure payments".

Traceability by construction

Links aren't decoration — they're typed. A task answers a requirement; a requirement answers a deliverable. The chain from any piece of work up to the thing you promised is always one query away, in both directions.

Gaps found before the audit does

Orphan detection flags work that answers nothing and requirements no work answers. A requirement can't be closed while open work still answers it. Cycles and unschedulable plans are caught by the built-in structure check.

Change with your eyes open

Before you descope or delay, impact analysis shows everything downstream. Every status move is recorded in an append-only history — who, when, and which connected app — exportable as CSV or JSON.

Honest positioning

Pragma is not a certified compliance suite — if you need DO-178C templates and validated toolchains, the enterprise ALM vendors earn their price. Pragma is for the far larger group of teams who need traceability-grade rigor — the live chain, the gap detection, the audit history — inside a fast, modern tool the whole team actually uses, at a price that doesn't require a procurement committee: flat €29/month for a whole organization.

Retire the spreadsheet.

Import your requirements, link the work, and the matrix maintains itself.
