5.11 Summary

• Project Monitor is a key individual, who provide impartial and concise support to Clients
who have an interest in a development project.
• Software project planning is a Level 2 Capability Maturity Model (CMM) Key Process
Area (KPA).

• Metrics are collected on each process step and are then used to develop process
improvements in the SPP process.

• Judgment-based estimation is the most frequently applied estimation approach in the
software industry today.

• Metrics are collected on each process step and are then used to develop process
improvements in the SPP process.
• The objective of software project planning is to provide a framework that enables the
manager to make reasonable estimates of resources, cost, and schedule should attempt to
define “best case” and “worst case” scenarios so that project outcomes can be bounded.
• The software planning begins with a statement of the work to be performed and other
constraints and goals that define and bound the software project.
• A milestone in a project could be an approved deliverable the milestone-chart only needs
to be complemented with a detailed plan containing activities for the next step in the
project.

5.12 Keywords

Art Gallery: This scenario is a and it will help you to determine what skills, materials, equipment,
time and costs you will need to achieve your objectives that are stated to the left of the chart.
Configuration Management Plan: It defines how the system will be configured and installed.

Entry Criteria: The elements and conditions necessary to be in place to begin a process activity.
Reading lower level activities assumes that the entry criteria for all higher level activities have
been satisfied.
