AVAL y AVER en CMMi ACQ V1.2 (7)

ACQUISITION VALIDATION (AVAL)

El propósito de Acquisition Validation (AVAL), perteneciente al Nivel de Madurez 3, es demostrar que el producto o servicio adquirido cumple su uso en un ambiente determinado. La validación asegura que el producto o servicio adquirido cumple las intenciones de las partes interesadas y con los requerimientos del cliente.

Las actividades de validación son realizadas durante el ciclo de vida del proyecto. Estas actividades pueden ser aplicadas a todos los aspectos del producto en un ambiente determinado. Los métodos utilizados para realizar la validación pueden ser aplicados a los productos de trabajo adquiridos (requerimientos del cliente y entregas del proveedor). Estos productos serán seleccionados en base a determinar cuál de ellos satisface las intenciones de las partes interesadas.

AVAL se relaciona con las siguientes área de proceso: ARD, AM y ATM

ACQUISITION VERIFICATION (AVER)

El propósito de Acquisition Verification (AVER), perteneciente al Nivel de Madurez 3, es asegurar que los productos de trabajo seleccionados cumplen con los requerimientos del contrato. Esta área de proceso involucra lo siguiente: preparación de la verificación, performance de la verificación e identificación de la acción correctiva.

La Verificación es un proceso que comienza con la verificación de los requerimientos y termina con la verificación del producto terminado. Las revisiones son un método de verificación de los productos de trabajo y son un mecanismo para la eliminación de defectos. Estas revisiones implican un examen metódico de los productos de trabajo.

AVER se relaciona con las siguientes áreas de proceso: AVAL, ARD, ATM y REQM.

Los objetivos específicos (SG), prácticas especificas (SP) y subprácticas de esta AP son:

SG 1 - Prepare for Verification

SP 1.1 - Select Work Products for Verification

1.1.1- Identify acquirer work products for verification 1.1.2- Identify requirements to be satisfied by each selected work product 1.1.3- Identify verification methods available for use 1.1.4- Define verification methods to be used for each selected work product. 1.1.5- Identify verification activities and methods to be used in the project plan.

SP 1.2 - Establish the Verification Environment

1.2.1- Identify verification environment requirements 1.2.2- Identify verification resources that are available for reuse and modification 1.2.3- Identify verification equipment and tools 1.2.4- Acquire verification support equipment and an environment

SP 1.3 - Establish Verification Procedures and Criteria

1.3.1- Generate the set of comprehensive, integrated verification procedures for work products and commercial off-the-shelf products, as necessary 1.3.2- Develop and refine the verification criteria as necessary 1.3.3- Identify the expected results, tolerances allowed and other criteria for satisfying the requirements 1.3.4- Identify equipment and environmental components needed to support verification
