[1] PTC Integrity Lifecycle Manager is built around a single repository.

This single-repository solution[buzzword] supports the three pillars of lifecycle management—traceability, process automation, and reporting and analytics[2] and some companies may see additional value in this approach.

Supported IDEs include Eclipse[4] and Visual Studio.

PTC Integrity Lifecycle Manager was previously known under different brands, including MKS Source, MKS Integrity Manager, Implementer (for IBM i), and others.

These were consolidated under a single brand, with the release of MKS Integrity 2007 in July 2007, which was acquired by PTC and finally renamed PTC Integrity in 2011.
