This Deployment Package (DP) supports the Entry Profile as defined in ISO/IEC TR 29110 Part 5-1-1, the Management and Engineering Guide (ISO 29110). The Entry Profile is one profile of the Generic profile group. The Generic profile group is applicable to VSEs that do not develop critical software. The Generic profile group is composed of 4 profiles: Entry, Basic, Intermediate and Advanced. The Generic profile group does not imply any specific application domain. The Entry profile is targeted to VSEs working on small projects (e.g. at most six person-months effort) and for start-up VSEs. The Entry Profile provides a foundation for a migration to the Basic Profile Processes.
A DP is a set of artifacts developed to facilitate the implementation of a set of practices in a Very Small Entity (VSE). A DP is not a process reference model (i.e. it is not prescriptive). The elements of a typical DP are: description of processes, activities, tasks, roles and products, template, checklist, example and tools.
The Guide provides Project Management and Software Implementation processes which integrate practices based on the selection of ISO/IEC 12207 (Software Life Cycle Processes) and ISO/IEC 15289 (Content of software life cycle process information products (documentation).
The purpose of the Project Management process is to establish and carry out in a systematic way the tasks of the software implementation project, which allows complying with the project’s objectives in the expected quality, time and cost.
The purpose of the Software Implementation process is the systematic performance of the analysis, design, construction, integration and tests activities for new or modified software products according to the specified requirements. Another Deployment Package describes the Software Implementation process.
