Joint Software Reviews - A Case Study from JP2030

Abstract

Joint Software Reviews - between acquirers and developers - are an important approach in the acquisition of software intensive systems. These reviews are poorly understood and often conducted in an inefficient, ad hoc manner. This report describes some aspects of the design review for Project Llama (JP2030). Information Technology Division were asked to provide input to this design review and formed a multi-disciplinary team to assess the design. This document describes the process attempted by the ITD review team and compares this to the actual process used. The benefits and limitations of the process are discussed as well as potential improvements. A survey of participants at the design review meeting was conducted and the results of this survey are also included.
