Abstract

A computer implemented method for monitoring an overall health of a software project. The method includes: providing a plurality of business process checkers; storing a plurality of criteria, wherein each of the plurality of criteria measures an aspect of the software project process; storing an upper bound parameter and a lower bound parameter for each business process checker; assimilating data from one or more data sources related to aspects of the software project process; calculating, by each business process checker, a score for each criterion responsive to said upper bound and lower bound parameters and said data from said one or more data sources; calculating an overall health score for the software project from each calculated score for each criterion; and displaying an indication of the overall health of the software project responsive to the calculated overall health score.
