Abstract

Developing and applying guidance for ISO/IEC 15504-conformant process assessments in small software companies, the authors enhanced existing assessment methods by considering the organization as a whole. They tailored the assessment to business factors, such as the company's product, revenue, services, and implementation strategies, as well as its process maturity and growth stage.
