Choosing PS&J

PS&J Software Six Sigma is an SEI Partner for Personal Software Process (PSP) and Team Software Process (TSP).  Our experience with PSP and TSP dates back to 1998 when we were involved in piloting the early versions of TSP. All of our TSP team members are SEI-authorized instructors and TSP coaches.

Our team has coached PSP projects in a broad range of industries including aerospace, medical instrumentation, industrial automation and control, financial services, and consumer electronics. We have worked with:

  • projects ranging in size from 5 KLOC to 500KLOC;

  • team sizes ranging from 5 to 75 full time members;

  • organizations ranging from CMM level 1 to CMM level 4;

  • embedded systems, distributed client server systems, and web based systems.

PS&J has coached teams using various programming languages, including assembly, C, VB, C++ and Java.

PS&J coaches have actually managed real projects using PSP and TSP.  This experience gives us a unique perspective on making TSP work in an industrial setting.

PS&J is experienced with change management and the issues involved in industrial scale deployment. Our team has helped organizations train their entire staffs and transition all their projects to TSP.  We have encountered all the typical deployment pitfalls and have learned to deal with them, continuously incorporating new lessons learned into our own evolving deployment process.

All of PS&J's  instructors have extensive training experience. They have trained well over 500 engineers in PSP and launched dozens of TSP teams in North America, Europe, and Asia.

Our PSP for Engineer’s Course includes two additional days for at total of 12 class days.  This allows us time for extensive one-on-one interaction with our students allowing us to work them past the rough patches of the standard 10-day course and resulting in an exceptionally high completion rate.  Our completion rate for PSP for Engineers  is over 90%.  This contrasts sharply with typical completion rates that are frequently closer to 60%.

PS&J has extensive experience with TSP launches.  Two of our team members were the first SEI Partner launch coaches to be authorized by the SEI.  PS&J team members have worked with:

  • team sizes ranging from 5 to 65

  • applications ranging from 5,000 to 750,000 LOCs

  • maintenance programs and new development programs

  • geographically distributed teams operating from multiple locations around the world

  • clients in America, Europe and Asia

Our clients have applied TSP to multiple applications domains including aerospace,  consumer electronics, and financial services.

PS&J has worked with the standard TSP as well as with the major TSP variants, including TSP for functional teams and multi-team TSP. Contact us if you have special needs: a large team, distributed locations, or a functional organization.
