Practical Application of a Software Development Framework in an Accountant Office

Abstract

The present chapter exposes the definition and practical application of a framework in the system area of an organization. Due to the total lack of the process, this framework has permitted us to generate the need of the implementation of a definite process model for software development. The described framework has been applied in a study case, just as has been done in other opportunities by different organizations with similar characteristics. This work provides the possibility of applying the framework slowly against an improvised and indefinite process, in which a methodology, a process model, and a collection of techniques and tools converge. These elements are advisable for small- and medium-sized software development companies and would facilitate their way to implement an integral process model which would continuously improve.
