Personal Services Company Improves Software Life Cycle, Attains Coveted Rating

Overview Service Corporation International (SCI) is North America's leading provider of funeral and cemetery services. To support regulatory compliance, company leaders wanted to increase the degree of rigor in SCI's software development methodologies. The team lacked tools to support its processes, so SCI deployed Microsoft Visual Studio Team System. Process guidance built into Visual Studio Team System helped SCI improve the overall software development life cycle and achieve a Capability Maturity Model Integration level 2 appraisal in only six months. By using the advanced life-cycle tools, process guidance, and rich collaboration features available in Visual Studio Team System, programmers and others can continuously improve processes, enhance communication, and increase collaboration, project visibility, accountability, and control.
