Abstract :
Very small software producing entities will soon have their own software process model. A new standard describes the basic processes for software projects. The new standard should also support conformance assessments and process assessments. This paper presents a process assessment method that consists of an assessment process and a process assessment model including assessment indicators. The method is applicable for process improvement purposes, but has limitations regarding formal process capability determination.
