Description / Abstract: Fields of application

This part of ISO/IEC 29110 is applicable to Very Small Entities (VSEs). VSEs are enterprises, organizations, departments or projects having up to 25 people. The lifecycle processes described in the ISO/IEC 29110 series are not intended to preclude or discourage their use by organizations bigger than VSEs.

This part of ISO/IEC 29110 is the Organizational management guidance for profiles described in ISO/IEC 29110-4-1 through Organizational Management, Project Portfolio Management, Resource Management and Process Management Processes. It is not intended for a VSE to use the standardized profile to implement this part of ISO/IEC 29110.

Using this part of ISO/IEC 29110, a VSE can obtain benefits in the following aspects:

— multiple project execution and supervision of its performance, making sure all processes are executed according to the organizational strategy;

— continuous monitoring of the customer satisfaction;

— deployment and improvement of the organizational standard processes in all projects;

— controlled provision of required resources.

This part of ISO/IEC 29110 is targeted at VSEs which already use at least ISO/IEC TR 29110-5-6-2 and/or ISO/IEC TR 29110-5-1-2 for their software projects.

This part of ISO/IEC 29110 is intended to be used with any processes, techniques and methods that enhance the VSEs’ customer satisfaction, quality and productivity.
