Measure, manage and benchmark...

You can't manage what you can't control, and you can't control what you don't measure.

— Tom DeMarco, Controlling Software Projects, 1982

Quality improvement always turns out to be a process problem. For software quality, it’s important to have a known starting point, so measurements - quality metrics - are a useful tool.

Reasoning services provide objective up-to-date key metrics for your source code with each delivery.
These internal benchmarks can become the starting point for quantitative process review. Tracking key metrics over time will identify trends and give you the means to assess the results of changing internal processes.

While internal benchmarks are useful, without external benchmarks, an organization and its managers won’t have the data to know what constitutes “good” performance.

As the leading provider of automated software inspection services worldwide, Reasoning has delivered software quality results for hundreds of customers and examined over a billion lines of source code. Our inspection database, developed across thousands of commercial projects, gives us a unique ability to benchmark and track software quality across releases, companies, and industries.

Measurment and benchmarks help you improve your organization's effectiveness and make the changes required to establish a quality leadership position in your market.
