Project management tools for implementing Quality Models, E.g. CMMI, ISO or PMI-PMBOK::

CMMI is the Capability Maturity Model Integration of more mature system project and software engineering introduced by SEI in Sept. 2001. The model can guide an organization to improve its process for development, maintenance, purchase and service. ISO 9001:2000 is another quality model that can be applied in many different industries.

PMBOK, Project Management Body of Knowledge, developed by Project Management Institute (PMI) is becoming the de facto standard for the project management profession. PMBOK contains the fundamental, baseline practices for the professionals working in the project management to refer to.

Our web-based project management software tool was designed for organizations that are planning to get, or already achieved CMMI. This award winning software was designed to be highly configurable, so that it can be suited to the specific requirements of individual companies by simply choosing the right configuration profile. Our software tool is fully integrated with the Microsoft Project software. The project manager can continue to plan the project using the MS Project, and use our software tools for the execution and control. The whole project team and other relevant personnel can work collaboratively or view the project information.

Our software tools address the following requirements in companies:

※ Managing Quality Processes – for defining and maintaining the templates, guidelines, checklists, and forms. When a project is initiated, the appropriate set of process components are selected.
