摘要
Majority of software companies are small. They have understood that it is crucial for their business to improve their software processes but they often do not have the knowledge and resources to do it. In this paper one way of introducing a process culture and improving the processes of a small company is presented. The problems that a small company has with its efforts towards better processes are also discussed and simple but working solutions to them are introduced.
