NEW SPI STUDY

Please share my Software Process Improvement (SPI) Study with your clients and colleagues (as it is "freely" distributable).

It's been downloaded over 5,000 times from my website, and is being distributed by the European Software Institute (ESI), Netherlands Software Engineering Research Center (SERC), and as a U.S. Air Force Research Report by the Data & Analysis Center for Software (DACS):

• European Software Institute (ESI)
• Netherlands Software Engineering Research Center (SERC)
• U.S. Air Force Data & Analysis Center for Software (DACS)

This NEW, "quantitative," and very READABLE SPI Study features a:

• Comprehensive Survey of SPI Methods.
• Broad Survey of SPI Metrics, Costs, Benefits, and Exciting Data.
• Return-on-Investment (ROI) Model.
• Break-Even-Point Model and Analyses.
• ONE-OF-A-KIND COMPARISON OF 8 MAJOR SPI METHODS !!!
• Fascinating Comparison of DETAILED SPI Costs and Benefits.

As DISCOVERED for the first time, the BEST SPI Method, the Personal Software Process^sm (PSP^sm), exhibits "astonishing" benefits:

• 82:1 Cycle Time Reduction Advantage over SEI CMM^® and ISO 9000.
• 55:1 Productivity Increase Advantage over SEI CMM and ISO 9000.
• 30:1 Quality Increase Advantage over the SEI CMM and ISO 9000.
• 258:1 Return on Investment Advantage over SEI CMM and ISO 9000.
• 1,290:1 Return on Investment Advantage over ordinary approaches.
