Improving CASA and LSPCM on high level design for offshoring Students: Nivedita Angadi Guides: Tanya Kudchadker Prof. Mark van denBrand, Tu/e Martijn Klabbers, LaQuso, Tu/e Cornelly Spier , Capgemini Rob Boomsma, Capgemini Rob Ista, Capgemini
To begin with… What is offshoring? Why offshoring followed in the Industry? - Cost Reduction - Efficient use of skilled labors - Focus is on core competence and innovation
Challenges in offshoring What are the risks in offshoring? - Geographical risks - Project risks - Infrastructure and Operational risks Quality and Productivity consideration.
Productivity Productivity The production or delivery of more products or services with less effort and less cost in a shorter time period with the better quality[1]. Productivity = Output produced by the process Input consumed by the process
Productivity Conceptual Model • Inputs • People – Experience, Knowledge,Skill • Management • Processes • Systems ,Tools and Materials ConversionProcess • Outputs • Improved Services • ReducedCosts • Increased Volume
Improving Quality of High Level Design Existing Approaches in Capgemini for Analysis, Design and Architecture - CASA – Capgemini Acceleratorfor Software Architecture LSPCM analysis as a quality gate for High Level Design - LSPCM – LaQuso Software Product Certification Model

What CASA contains ? Guidelines Checklists Templates Examples
LaQuso Software Certification Model (LSPCM) What is LSPCM? - Rulebased software product certification model. What LSPCM contains? - Product areas - Properties of product areas - Certification Criteria (CC) for all product areas [CC1]Completeness [CC2]Uniformity [CC3]Conformance - SpecificCriterias (Rules) - Certification levels
Quality improvement for High Level Design High Level Design Why quality improvements for High Level Design?
Research Goals Suggest improvements for High Level Design in the context of offshoring - LSPCM Certification Model - CASA - Case Studies
Side goals Improve productivity - Analyzinginfluence of high level design quality. - Analyzing the split in activitiesbetweenonshore and offshore teams.
Research Question What aspects of the software artifact High Level Design determine the quality of offshored software development? Side Questions: - How can quality of high level design influence project’s productivity? - How can split in activities between onshore and offshore team influence on the project’s productivity?
