Software Process Templates
(Includes 3* Hours of Consultation)

Templates Are the Key to Producing Software Engineering Documents that are Clear and Concisely Represent the Requirements of the Process

These Templates will help a software engineer, without extensive knowledge of a software engineering process to prepare a plan or record that meets highly professional expectations. International authorities working in their specific area of software process expertise author these templates. The templates are neither theory nor academic exercises. They provide wording and recommendations based on experience and extensive knowledge in the workplace. Each template's illustrative text is designed for use by stripping underlined tutorial notation and adding requirements and guidance unique to your organization and operating environment. The text can also be modified for requirements and guidance to meet organizational needs, and unique environments. The templates are applicable to all types of software from information technology, commercial, scientific, and other non-business applications . Each template comes with three hours of free telephone or electronic consultation. SEPT will answer any questions concerning the Templates for 60 days after purchase. Order these great software engineering tools today!
