ABSTRACT:
In these days, there exist some maturity & capability models,
standard methodologies and guidelines to help organizations to improve their
processes and the way they work. In software area, there are Software Process Assessment
Models like ISO/IEC 15504. This model provides guidance for assessing the organization’s
capacity about software development and his maturity on implemented processes. Software
Process Assessment models don’t provide systematic metrics for assessing the
Software Process. Therefore, this process has to be performed by experienced
assessors who use their own subjective estimations for quantitative measures or
by using established metrics. This article presents a tool proposal designed
for supporting the software process assessment and helps to determine the
organization’s capability on his software development process from ISO/ IEC
15504 (SPICE) model perspective.
