Purpose

This International Standard is intended to aid project managers in managing to successful conclusion those projects concerned with software-intensive systems and software products.

This International Standard specifies the required content of the project management plan (PMP). This International Standard also quotes the extracted purpose and outcome statements from the project processes of ISO/IEC 12207:2008 (IEEE Std 12207-2008) and ISO/IEC 15288:2008 (IEEE Std 15288-2008), and adds detailed guidance for managing projects that use these processes for software products and softwareintensive systems.

Field of application

This International Standard is written for those who use or plan to use ISO/IEC 15288:2008 (IEEE Std 15288- 2008) and ISO/IEC 12207:2008 (IEEE Std 12207-2008) on projects dealing with software-intensive systems and software products, regardless of project scope, product, methodology, size or complexity. The field of application of this International Standard spans the whole software or system life cycle, and addresses everybody who plays a role in project management – project managers and others, specifically:

• those responsible for establishing and continuously improving ISO/IEC 12207:2008 (IEEE Std 12207- 2008) software life cycle processes and ISO/IEC 15288:2008 (IEEE Std 15288-2008) system life cycle processes;

• those responsible for executing any ISO/IEC 12207:2008 (IEEE Std 12207-2008) software life cycle process or ISO/IEC 15288:2008 (IEEE Std 15288-2008) system life cycle process at a project level;
