Abstract :
A software product "blueprint" let stakeholders view a software project\´s status at any point in the development. The work on requirements analysis and design when only the designers understand a software project\´s progress can be frustrating. Although a project leader should give progress presentations to stakeholders before the software is ready for demonstration, a presentation showing fragments of code is hardly useful. The lack of useful information makes it difficult for stakeholders to give constructive criticism on the project\´s progress or to set priorities. It might also damage their confidence in the project\´s progress and quality and their faith in the plans
