We are using FDD for our development. I'm currently refining the processes to be integrated with JIRA. Lloyds just visited us for ISO re-certification (I think that was it) and the auditor thought that the FDD process was fantastic.
In lots of ways - basically JIRA is tracking the project right from its first light through to the final release. I've added an image called JIRA-FDD (its under my user-id if it doesn't show up below) showing the basic sub tasks of a project. Each of these has its own workflow underneath. The "workpackage" one is copied for each workpackage and has the individual feature identifies inside it. This can then be assigned to a developer and worked on. My plan is to get an FDD Tool integrated into JIRA so its all seemless but thats a way off yet I think.
All this is still under review and isn't live, signed off or fully tested yet.
Hope that helps though and please let me know what you think

PS
Banding Estimate == Its like a "pre sales" estimate
FS == functional specification
Ambiguity Review == where someone reads the other person's document / feature list and tells them what they think it means
Below is a potential JIRA workflow for workpackage tracking that I draw up very early this morning (pre coffee) so please take it with a grain of salt. Its only my very first brain dump.

Hi Murray
we are on the way to implement FDD in our company. We also use JIRA for Bugtracking. How do you integrated JIRA in FDD ?
Kind regards

National Bank is using FDD.
I also heard that Macquarie Bank is looking at it.
