WHAT IS SPICE?

   SPICE – Software Process Improvement & Capability
    dEtermination
        also known as ISO/IEC 15504 is an international standard
         for SW process assessments
        a model that identifies a set of software best practices and
         shows how they fit together to create an improvement path
         for the software development process
        Mainly used in Europe and Australia by the automotive
         industry


   Goal
          To provide assessment results that are repeatable,
           objective, comparable
AUTOMOTIVE SPICE
   Automotive SPICE launched in April 2006
       its usage will increase mainly driven by HIS (Audi, BMW,
        Daimler Chrysler, Porsche, Volkswagen), Ford & Volvo, Fiat

       If OEM’s target levels are not met, then:
           Suppliers are requested to improve the development processes
           In case of high risks/low capability levels, the suppliers are
            excluded from sourcing


     (me) structure the way of working
     (me) identify the main weakness within the development
      process and build improvement activities
     (me) “link” between inputs & outputs
THE GOAL OF PROCESS ASSESSMENT
& IMPROVEMENT

                                                         Rating

       Process            Assessment


                                                       Improvement


    The goal of an improvement is to change an organization’s
     processes so that they achieve a higher ability to meet its
     businesses goals
    Assessments deliver the input for any improvement by
     detecting strength and weaknesses in the organizations
     processes
    Assessments are also a tool used by customers to ascertain the
     ability of their suppliers to meet their needs
SPICE STRUCTURE
The measure of the capability is done according to the two-
  dimensional evaluations scheme of ISO 15504 (SPICE/
  Automotive SPICE®):

Process Dimension              Capability Dimension     Two-dimensional
(Automotive SPICE®)            (ISO 15504 'SPICE')      Evaluations Scheme




                                                      It is possible to identify the
                                                      capability of certain processes
Includes processes in groups                          independent of the others
SPICE MODEL’S STRUCTURE
   Process dimension
     Characterized by set of purpose statements which describe in
      measurable terms what has to be achieved in order to attain
      the defined purpose of the process

   Process Capability dimension
     Characterizes the level of capability that an organization unit
      has attained for a particular process or,
     May be used by the organization as a target to be attained
     Represent measurable characteristics necessary to manage a
      process and improve its capability to perform

CAPABILITY LEVEL 1 & 2
Level 1                          Level 2

   The purpose of the process      The performance of the
                                     process is planned and
    is generally achieved            checked
   Work products proof             The responsibility for
                                     developing the work products
    implementation of base           is assigned to a person or
    practices                        team
   No documented process           Requirements for the work
                                     products are identified,
   No planning or checks of         documented and traced
    performance of the process      Work products are put under
                                     configuration management
   No quality requirements          and quality assurance
    for work product are            No documented or defined
    expressed                        process
CAPABILITY LEVEL 3
   A documented standard process with tailoring guidelines
    exists and is used in the project
   Historical process performance data is gathered
   Experience from the performance of the process is used for
    process improvement
   Resources and needed infrastructure for the performance
    of the process are identified and made available
   The process is not yet quantitatively understood or

      Management)
     Process Improvement: PIM.3 (Process Improvement)
     Reuse: REU.2 (Reuse program management)
PROCESS ATTRIBUTES
MEASURE CAPABILITY LEVELS
   The fulfillment of a process attribute (PA) is
    measured along a scale from 0 – 100% in the
    following predefined stages:

       N (not achieved): 0 – 15%
           The are no or only very limited indications of PA fulfillment
       P (partially achieved): 16 – 50%
           There are some indicators that the PA is implemented to the
            measured extent. In some aspects the process remains
            unpredictable, though.
       L (largely achieved): 51 – 85%
           There is evidence that the PA is implemented to the measured
            extend in a useful and systematic way. Process performance
            might still show some weaknesses
       F (fully achieved): 86 – 100%
           There is evidence for a complete and systematic PA execution to
            the measured extent. Process performance does not show any
            significant shortcomings due to the analyzed processes

  • 3. WHAT IS SPICE?  SPICE – Software Process Improvement & Capability dEtermination  also known as ISO/IEC 15504 is an international standard for SW process assessments  a model that identifies a set of software best practices and shows how they fit together to create an improvement path for the software development process  Mainly used in Europe and Australia by the automotive industry  Goal  To provide assessment results that are repeatable, objective, comparable
  • 4. AUTOMOTIVE SPICE  Automotive SPICE launched in April 2006  its usage will increase mainly driven by HIS (Audi, BMW, Daimler Chrysler, Porsche, Volkswagen), Ford & Volvo, Fiat  If OEM’s target levels are not met, then:  Suppliers are requested to improve the development processes  In case of high risks/low capability levels, the suppliers are excluded from sourcing  (me) structure the way of working  (me) identify the main weakness within the development process and build improvement activities  (me) “link” between inputs & outputs
  • 5. THE GOAL OF PROCESS ASSESSMENT & IMPROVEMENT Rating Process Assessment Improvement  The goal of an improvement is to change an organization’s processes so that they achieve a higher ability to meet its businesses goals  Assessments deliver the input for any improvement by detecting strength and weaknesses in the organizations processes  Assessments are also a tool used by customers to ascertain the ability of their suppliers to meet their needs
  • 6. SPICE STRUCTURE The measure of the capability is done according to the two- dimensional evaluations scheme of ISO 15504 (SPICE/ Automotive SPICE®): Process Dimension Capability Dimension Two-dimensional (Automotive SPICE®) (ISO 15504 'SPICE') Evaluations Scheme It is possible to identify the capability of certain processes Includes processes in groups independent of the others
  • 7. SPICE MODEL’S STRUCTURE  Process dimension  Characterized by set of purpose statements which describe in measurable terms what has to be achieved in order to attain the defined purpose of the process  Process Capability dimension  Characterizes the level of capability that an organization unit has attained for a particular process or,  May be used by the organization as a target to be attained  Represent measurable characteristics necessary to manage a process and improve its capability to perform
  • 8. PROCESS OVERVIEW AND HIS- SCOPE
  • 11. CAPABILITY LEVEL 1 & 2 Level 1 Level 2  The purpose of the process  The performance of the process is planned and is generally achieved checked  Work products proof  The responsibility for developing the work products implementation of base is assigned to a person or practices team  No documented process  Requirements for the work products are identified,  No planning or checks of documented and traced performance of the process  Work products are put under configuration management  No quality requirements and quality assurance for work product are  No documented or defined expressed process
  • 12. CAPABILITY LEVEL 3  A documented standard process with tailoring guidelines exists and is used in the project  Historical process performance data is gathered  Experience from the performance of the process is used for process improvement  Resources and needed infrastructure for the performance of the process are identified and made available  The process is not yet quantitatively understood or managed  Process improvement is reactive
  • 13. PROCESS DIMENSION OVERVIEW  Primary Life Cycle Processes Category  Acquisition  Supply  Engineering: ENG.4 (Software requirements analysis), ENG.5 (Software design), ENG.6 (Software construction), ENG.7 (Software integration), ENG.8 (Software testing)  Supporting Life Cycle Processes Category  Support: SUP.1 (Quality assurance), SUP.2 (Verification), SUP.8 (Configuration management), SUP.10 (Change request management)  Organizational Life Cycle Process Category  Management: MAN.3 (Project Management), MAN.5 (Risk Management)  Process Improvement: PIM.3 (Process Improvement)  Reuse: REU.2 (Reuse program management)
  • 15. MEASURE CAPABILITY LEVELS  The fulfillment of a process attribute (PA) is measured along a scale from 0 – 100% in the following predefined stages:  N (not achieved): 0 – 15%  The are no or only very limited indications of PA fulfillment  P (partially achieved): 16 – 50%  There are some indicators that the PA is implemented to the measured extent. In some aspects the process remains unpredictable, though.  L (largely achieved): 51 – 85%  There is evidence that the PA is implemented to the measured extend in a useful and systematic way. Process performance might still show some weaknesses  F (fully achieved): 86 – 100%  There is evidence for a complete and systematic PA execution to the measured extent. Process performance does not show any significant shortcomings due to the analyzed processes
