Ivar Jacobson Consulting will help you plan your IBM Rational Unified Process© (RUP©) rollout, carefully assessing risk and applying risk mitigation techniques that have been designed based on experience.

Adoption of the RUP can be challenging for any organization. Whether your company has purchased RUP, bought a lot of books and/or sent your teams to classes, the actual use of the RUP can be daunting. Simply knowing what is pertinent and what is not can stop your project teams from getting started on the right foot.  In order to ascertain which areas and what level of mentoring would be most-effective, we perform our proprietary "Check RUP" assessment.

We show you what's important; where the risks are; how to mitigate them. We provide a referenceable knowledge-base of guidelines that can be augmented for your organization's special circumstances.  Our experienced mentors work alongside your teams, actually producing artifacts, while providing tips and techniques to your staff. Our philosophy is to "teach your staff to fish". Success for us is for you to not need our help any more!
