 One of the most important aspects of product development processes is variance. No two products were ever developed with exactly the same process. Processes always vary, based on target customers, technology, available budgets, market regulations, and many more characteristics. One of the most important aspects of product development processes is variance.

-Process tailoring is a key capability to deal with variance in development projects and programs. It allows process authors to define rules, when projects or programs can deviate from the standard processes.+Process tailoring is a key capability to deal with variance in development projects and programs.

-To prevent this, common questions that affect multiple process modules should be defined in a parent process module, e.g. "Common Elements", that is integrated into every process area module. Each module can then define its own tailoring dependencies to those common questions. When the process modules are integrated into one workspace, the tailoring dependencies will be merged into a single question again. When the tailoring assistant is run, common questions will only be asked once, but affect elements from all integrated process areas.+To prevent this, common questions that affect multiple process modules should be defined in a process module, that is integrated into every process area module, e.g. "Common Elements".
