Software Delivery Best Practices - Webinar Series - Oct 17, 2007 at 11am EDT

We are very excited to bring you this event as part of our Ready for IBM Rational software Comes to You series. From Chaos to Continuous Improvement: Leveraging RUP Software Delivery Best Practices for CMMI® -featuring Carey Schwaber, Senior Analyst from Forrester Research October 17th, 2007 - 11am EDT - sponsored by Wipro Technologies Webinar Description: Looking to achieve faster adoption of CMMI processes? Implement agile approaches to process tailoring & improvement? Reduce process management overhead by finding more reuse? While leveraging CMMI for business advantage is a key goal for many organizations, cutting down on the definition cycle time and fast tracking implementation can be elusive. CMMI is a framework to help integrate traditionally separate organizational functions, set process improvement goals and priorities, provide guidance for quality processes, and a point of reference for appraising current processes. While CMMI describes the "What" of Software Development Methodology, IBM Rational Unified Process aims to detail the "How". To fully benefit from this combination, existing gaps need to be addressed. This complimentary 1 hour educational webcast will explore: Common software delivery best practices for CMMI that can reduce costs, redundancy, implementation risks and improve quality throughout the software delivery lifecycle Synergies and solutions to gaps found when mapping RUP to CMMI process areas A demo of a new Ready for Rational solution developed in Rational Method Composer authored by Wipro Technologies that provides templates, checklists, guidelines for the process areas missing in RUP that are mandated by CMMI REGISTER The Rational Global User Group Community
