HP GDAS is demonstrating its VSTS based solution APPRISE in Tech Ed India Venues. If you want to have a look at this solution, Visit HP booth at the next venue i.e. Bangalore on June 22 and June 23.
HP used Microsoft Visual Studio® 2005 Team Foundation Server, TFS, to deliver APPRISE, an enterprise wide solution for software development project and process management. Through the extensibility, flexibility, and pre-built features of Team Foundation Server, HP rapidly and cost-effectively delivered APPRISE, a solution that supports and enforces HP GDAS’s own development methodologies, processes, and reporting needs.
The key benefits of the solution are:
- CMMi Level 5 Compliant
- Provides the aggregated view of individual team projects
- Web Based: to enable non .Net based projects
- Schedule Tracker Service for sending alerts/notifications for better project management
- Provides additional methodologies such as Waterfall
