As a result of the variety of government identified
standards, guide-lines, procedures, etc., which define the requirements
for the development of software it has become apparent that what-is
needed is a common (eclectic) view on what is or has to be done.
Views taken from different countries or projects will almost certainly
be dissimilar due to the historical and traditional methods and
practices used.
What-is possible however is a documented management system which
will combine all the best policies, principles and procedures
to date which can be tailored to suit specific projects and will
provide a common set of management practices and methods to be
used throughout by a company or companies. (A kind of open management
system)
These requirements shall be gained from the latest information
available from the recognized standardization organizations, e.g.,
MIL-STDs, DEF STANs, etc., and their associate documents.
The article "MANAGING STANDARDS" attempts
to establish an alternative by combining requirements from a variety
of commercial and military standards and proposing a universal
solution (policy to implementation) to the problem of managing
large and complex technical systems.
Gains and benefits from enforcing standardization are enormous, if a common 'Project Management System' can be established using the internet medium. Management and control of the system and projects could be fast and recorded. 'Under construction'
