Sistema Telemático para la estimación de esfuerzo de proyectos de software

Abstract

Currently the company BITS Americas SAS, carry out the process of estimating software projects by the evaluation expert, who according to his criteria and experience diligently an Excel format, which establishes the use cases and the complexity that will have each one, and in this way achieve the client the time and effort that have the development of the need. This activity does not have a system that facilitates the calculation of the estimation of time and effort necessary for the development of a software project, and that is supported by a recognized and reliable methodology that reduces the margin of error in the estimates of the company such as the Use Point Points method. That is why the need arises for a telematic system based on a micro services architecture, which allows a fast and efficient access to the history of all the company's estimates, as well as the creation of new estimates, where you can get the time and effort that is needed for a new project. The system and the document are based on the phases of the continuous improvement methodology. PHVA, with the same meaning as the scope and limit, also did. Following the proposed methodology, an analysis, the diagnosis of the need of the company for the state of the new software projects, is carried out, the characteristics and restrictions that the telematic system will be assessed and what will be developed to be able to optimize the process of the company. As a possible solution, to improve the internal IT process, a prototype is created that allows calculation of the time and effort estimation supported under which the method of Points of use can be defined, when the system is finished , acceptance tests will be performed to validate the functionality of all the modules and that allow to identify if the solution satisfies the needs of the end user. Finally, the best conclusions of the project are given.
