Automating and accelerating your software process improvement initiatives

Managing software delivery process is not a myth anymore. Several standards in the market such as CMMI (Capability Maturity Model-Integration) prove to be successful for both vendor and in-house IT organizations. Key benefits of process standardization include continuous improvement, consistent service delivery, higher service performance, cost reduction and a lot more.

The implementation of these standards is, however; a different story all together. Many IT organizations are facing challenges during the implementation. Better yet some organizations find it even tougher to make decision to start the initiatives at the first place. Reasons include time, resources, cost and risk associated with the implementation.

With QMS, you have a choice. You can reduce the cycle of process improvement initiatives by over 50% but still remain solid compliance to the standard. Together with process templates supported by the tool and professional training, your SQA (Software Quality Assurance) team will not have to start everything from scratch. This essentially means you can reduce implementation cost, timeline and risks associated with traditional approach. Take CMMI implementation, for example; QMS can reduce the Process Definition step which normally takes 6 months to 3 months.

Moreover, QMS is designed to be used by all resources on your IT engagement in order to improve efficiency. This means that all project data will be stored in QMS for further analysis and improvement. Data includes Progress, Defect Rate, First Time Right, Resource Usage, etc. In addition, imagine at the end of the project, you can summarize requirements for next release and share known issues with your maintenance support team.
