ABSTRACT:
The majority of software projects fail, largely due to improper usage of software configuration management (SCM). The process improvements required to enhance the effectiveness of SCM often elude many organizations due to the increasing complexity of their development environment. Without effective SCM, organizations are unable to effectively track and control critical changes in software, limiting overall software quality.

This white paper details best practices for improved software configuration management. Learn how to ensure that your organization's methodologies leverage a library of scaleable best practices for SCM, requirements management, project management, and quality assurance. Explore the steps necessary to plan an effective SCM environment. Discover how to attain greater project visibility, optimal team collaboration, and software asset reuse to deliver increased software at a faster pace.
