ISO/IEC/IEEE International Standard - Systems and software engineering--Life cycle management--Part 3: Guidelines for the application of ISO/IEC/IEEE 12207 (software life cycle processes)

Abstract

ISO/IEC/IEEE 24748-3 provides guidance on the application of the software life cycle processes standard, ISO/IEC/IEEE 12207:2017. This document establishes guidance to implement a common framework for software life cycle processes, with well-defined terminology, that can be referenced by the software industry. This document provides guidance on defining, controlling, and improving software life cycle processes within an organization or a project. It recommends methods and approaches suitable for a variety of life cycle models. The guidance emphasizes the importance of establishing a strategy, planning, and the involvement of stakeholders, with the ultimate goal of achieving customer satisfaction. Its purpose is to help ensure consistency in system concepts and life cycle concepts, models, stages, processes, process application, key points of view, adaptation and use in various domains. This document concentrates on specific guidance for the Technical processes and how they can be effectively used during the software life cycle. It is intended to be useful in a variety of software life cycle situations, including the use of agile methods.
