Incremental Commitment Spiral Model, The

Many systems development practitioners find traditional “one-size-fits-all” processes inadequate for the growing complexity, diversity, dynamism, and assurance needs of their products and services. The Incremental Commitment Spiral Model (ICSM) responds with a principle- and risk-based framework for defining and evolving your project and corporate process assets, avoiding pitfalls and disruption, and leveraging opportunities to increase value.

This book explains ICSM’s framework of decision criteria and principles, and shows how to apply them through relevant examples. It demonstrates ICSM’s potential for reducing rework and technical debt, improving maintainability, handling emergent requirements, and raising assurance levels.

Its coverage includes

• What makes a system development successful
• ICSM’s goals, principles, and usage as a process-generation framework
• Creating and evolving processes to match your risks and opportunities
• Integrating your current practices and adopting ICSM concepts incrementally, focusing on your greatest needs and opportunities
