Have you folks looked at Adalon, http://adalon.net/? It does requirements gathering, wireframing, etc. It also does code generation for fusebox and struts, and cool-looking documentation, all from your design specs. The various generators can be radically customized in the pro version.
Not totally inexpensive, and fairly heavyweight in terms of the process it's really trying to support, but many folks swear by it, especially in the fusebox community. Definitely worth a look if you're thinking about how to standardize your software lifecycle process, and support it in software.
