Additional information on SES presentation and case study:
Performing Independent Verification and Validation (IV&V) reviews are now critical requirements on federal and state government projects (in fact, IV&V is now mandated for HHS and NASA related projects). IV&V may include inspections, walkthroughs and checklists for auditing systems and subsystems that are produced by internal and external project teams. IV&V should and must be incorporated throughout the entire system development life cycle. Software Engineering Services (SES), a long standing Serena partner, has been performing IV&V engagements for the last 15 years within both state and federal environments (with the States of Texas, Iowa, Alabama and Florida, and US Air Force). SES is very familiar with the most effective methods to conduct successful IV&V programs, and how to collaborate and ensure all stakeholders expectations are met.
