Currently, Open Source Software penetrates ever more market sectors of commercial software.
In particular, license cost free professional configuration management tools are gaining ground (version control, change control, build management, project automation). These open source tools are now virtually on a par with their commercial counterparts.
Even requirements of process reference and evaluation models such as CMMI or SPICE can be met by clever application of open source tools.
In collaboration with our partner GfKM, we provide professional support for:
- introduction of cost free tools
- full or partial migration from commercial CM systems
- adaptation to existing production processes
- integration with existing tool environments
- data migration
- benchmarking and comparison of various solutions
The introduction of new tools always makes good opportunity to also evaluate and, as deemed necessary, improve the configuration, change, and requirements management processes involved. CMII, a concrete CM reference process that completely integrates change and requirements management, provides a very strong base for process optimization.
If you’d like to be informed of today’s possibilities in the field of open source tools or if you would like to know how to employ these tools in combination with CMII to improve your organization’s software development process, please don't hesitate to contact us.
