When SLIM Meets Agile…
Great things happen for software development teams.
SLIM Tools®
Your software development team strives for optimal results in managing your projects. SLIM removes guesswork from benchmarking and project estimation – before, during and after your project is complete.
PROJECT ESTIMATING
SLIM-Estimate develops reliable estimates for your project, within 90 percent accuracy. Our estimates draw on a database of more than 12,000 projects collected worldwide across all industries.
IN-FLIGHT CONTROL
SLIM-Control is like GPS navigation for your project. Are you on-schedule? Properly staffed? On budget? SLIM evaluates your project ‘in-flight’ and accurately predicts your completion date.
BENCHMARKING
How did you measure up? Use the SLIM-Metrics® tool to benchmark your completed projects against the QSM worldwide database. The results may surprise you – and guide you in your next release.
