Abstract

We have developed a “WBS(Work Breakdown Structure) process model” for a business application software development project. We have also developed a project management system called “PRO-NAVI” which works on the “WBS process model.” This WBS process model” provides (1) mutual mapping between the “software development processes”, “activities”, “products”, “know-how,” “rules”, and “standards”, and provides (2) comprehensive control. The role of “project management” in a business application software development project is recognized to be of more importance. These projects generally involve huge efforts, and cost heavy payloads to their “project management.” Thus, an efficient project management system is needed. We have developed “PRO-NAVI”. We have applied and evaluated “PRO-NAVI” with a number of projects and confirmed that it is effective for efficient project fulfillment.
