Artifact: Software Development Plan















This artifact is a comprehensive, composite artifact that gathers all information required to manage the project. It encloses a number of artifacts developed during the Inception phase and is maintained throughout the project.


Domains: Project Management
Work Product Kinds: Plan






Purpose



The purpose of the Software Development Plan is to gather all of the information necessary to control the project. It describes the approach to the development of the software, and is the top-level plan generated and used by the managers to direct the development effort. The following people use the Software Development Plan: The project manager, to plan the project schedule and resource needs, and to track progress against the schedule. Project team members, to understand what they need to do, when they need to do it, and what other activities they are dependent upon.

Tailoring



Representation Options There are situations when a standard is called out in a contract that stipulates the outline and contents of a Software Development Plan. In this case, you would use that instead of the proposed outline shown in the HTML template, but you should form a clear mapping of the information requirements of that standard to the outline in the template provided. Additional Information Good software development plans evolve. A useful Software Development Plan is periodically updated (it is not stagnant shelfware), and it is understood and embraced by managers and practitioners. The Software Development Plan is the defining document for the project's process. Prepare a single Software Development Plan that: complies with organizational standards for content complies with the contract (if any) provides traceability to, or waivers from, contract and organization requirements is updated at each major milestone evolves along with the design and requirements A standard format promotes: reuse of processes, methods, experience, and people accountability for organizational expectations homogeneous process objectives A key discriminator of a good Software Development Plan is its conciseness, lack of philosophy, and focus on meaningful standards and procedures.
