A process management tool supporting component-based process development and hierarchical management mechanism

How to develop the software process models that satisfy the organization's standards and the characteristics of software projects, and improve it continuously, is difficulty for software organizations. A process management tool named JBPM (Jade Bird Process Management) proposes a good solution for this issue. JBPM supports component based process development and hierarchical management mechanism which is illumined by CMM. In order to provide a unified framework for all processes in different projects across the organization, JBPM employs the software lifecycle process framework in ISO/IEC std 12207 and IEEE std 1517, and use it as a general requirement specification for those processes.
