Abstract :
Model solutions for implementing a measurement program do not always fit an organization without tailoring. The sizes and maturities of the processes vary from organization to organization. In an organization with mature software processes, carefully adjusting the created solution for a measurement program to the environment-specific needs and options can save considerable effort. The article demonstrates the real-world application of the Nokiaway software metrics program and how it benefited in its divergence from a typical goal-question-metric approach
