Abstract
This paper presents a case study in designing flexible, future-proofed FTI configuration software. It starts by outlining the challenges posed to software in supporting the combined FTI and related product lines of two historically disjoint customer bases that differ in their software user experience but still have the same high expectation levels when it comes to customer support. The paper then describes how Aerospace Instrumentation (AI) used this opportunity to reconfigure two software products to not only support historically separate product lines, but also to create greater choice for their customers in addition to providing greater flexibility and options for the future.
