Most useful when you need an independent measurement
baseline quickly, but don't have the necessary manpower or skills,
this entry-level service lets you quickly and accurately assess
productivity and quality in your current software development
environment. The QSMA software tools used are SLIM and SLIM-Metrics.
QSMA will provide professional services including
data collection, technical review, assessment, data analysis and
a management presentation for your organization. The effort will
involve data collection and analysis of software projects that
have been completed, or are in-progress and close to completion.
Regular meetings in person or via telephone will
be held with your managers or other persons responsible for coordinating
the study.
