Raise The Bar helps software companies realize their full potential by studying their current processes, understanding pain areas / gaps and then instituting systematic process improvement initiatives to strengthen the Quality Management System (QMS). We support organizations on Software Quality Assurance activities viz. processes, certifications and training.

• Study current systems, process and work methodologies and understand pain areas / gaps.
• Update process and quality manuals. Update necessary forms, tools, systems to track projects data and metrics.
• Subsequently setup and implement the software development and quality processes. Also identify and implement process improvement activities leading to higher process maturity.
• Conduct training for managers and developers on SQA systems, software metrics and certification models, high maturity best practices, process performance models.
• Collect data, generate metrics, SPC charts. Monitor projects for compliance to instituted processes.
• Analyze data and various hypotheses to arrive at Process Performance Model (PPM).
• Assist in identifying the appropriate certification to go for viz. ISO 9001, CMMI, ISO 20000.
• Transition from ISO 9001:2000 to ISO 9001:2008.
• Transition from CMMI for DEV v1.1 / v1.2 to CMMI for DEV v1.3
• Conduct pre appraisal for certification compliance. Prepare the organization for final appraisals.
