(not in the software yet, for now, just talk about it and give background)

We use tailoring to incorporate requirements of project- or program-specific instances in a process.

There is no “Ultimate” process that all processes can follow successfully. All of the processes follow the same Metamodel, but they have small variations. Tailoring a process filters out the process activities, work products, roles, etc. for a specific project. For example, a “Safety Manager” role will have different work products based on the level of safety integrity needed, so the information for all other levels is not relevant for a specific project. Tailoring this process allows the safety manager to only see the components that are applicable to the specific project.

TBD

Project- or program-specific processes can be created through module inheritance. Specific requirements of the specific processes can be incorporated by a tailoring mechanism.
