Abstract

Incremental delivery policies for software process improvement are anxiously required by the industry. Improvement projects need to show results as early as possible to capture the attention of the organization and to keep things focused on process improvement. Incremental policies are the foundation of building a provider-reset partnership in software process improvement. Few guidelines, if any, explicitly support such an approach. The authors examine a general approach to incremental software process improvement deployment, and investigate a method for verifying the suitability of conventional models of software process improvement for incremental improvement deployment. They present a framework including the necessary models, an evaluation method and support tools.
