4290.0. "Software Evaluation ?" by SIOG::D_MORRISSEY () Thu Nov 23 1995 10:09

    
    Hi,
    
    Has anyone out there got any info on Digital's standards/methodologies
    for evaluating software products ( internal or 3rd party ) ?
    
    I've looked in VTX and NOTES conferences with no joy.
    
    Many thanks,
    
    Daragh.

    I see that you are in Territory A.  In the past when I was in Ter. A, I
    had much opportunity to work with sub-contractors who were supplying
    software & hardware components into projects.  We used two sorts of 
    evaluation methods ;
    	
    	i) Formal software acquisition (licencing & purchasing related)
    	   Try contacting Chris Robins @REO - she is an expert in this
    	   field.
    
    	ii) Product evaluation, standards&quality, factory visit etc.
    	    Here I cannot remember the contact person's name but once
    	    again it was Purchasing who arranged this for me and we
    	    used some excellent resources from the Solent special systems
    	    group.  (CSS?)
