The ROI IDEF0 Methodology download is a companion to the book, ROI of Software Process Improvement: Metrics for Project Managers and Software Engineers (for more information, please click here). It’s a 365-page interconnected enterprise architecture for rapidly, easily, and authoritatively estimating the Return on Investment (ROI) of the Inspection Process, Personal Software Process (PSP), Team Software Process (TSP), Software Capability Maturity Model® (SW-CMM®), ISO 9001, and Capability Maturity Model Integration® (CMMI®).

The ROI IDEF0 Methodology is a watershed download in both PDF® and AI0 Win® formats for large corporations and large nonprofit organizations, which spend millions of dollars on Software Process Improvement (SPI) annually. It’s extremely useful for small to medium sized high technology firms, so they can optimize the value of their investments in SPI, and effectively compete with large blue chip firms, without having to spend millions of dollars on SPI. And, it’s the perfect tool for the academic community, to help scientists conduct state-of-the-art research in ROI, SPI, and software metrics, and deliver just-in-time learning modules.

More importantly, the ROI IDEF0 Methodology saves the high technology community thousands of development hours. It establishes a highly extensible and adaptable framework, foundation, and blueprint for creating enterprise policies and procedures for ROI and just-in-time training and institutional education programs in ROI. It is the perfect specification for successfully creating robust automated ROI estimation tools for the ever expanding commercial shrink wrapped software market. IDEF0 is the premier methodology for business process reengineering (BPR), SPI, and software process modeling.

PSP and TSP are service marks of Carnegie Mellon University
SW-CMM and CMMI are registered in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office by Carnegie Mellon University
