Objective The objective is to demonstrate the benefits of an integrated Project Management and Management Accounting Process particularly in terms of software productivity and quality, through application to live pilot projects. Management Accounting should allow the global management of the company with respect to its projects: it should be fast and approximate enough to enable management decisions, as opposed to Financial Accounting which is accurate but slow This methodology should be oriented towards the planning and control processes of Systems and Software (S&S) development Projects. The latest consequence would be firstly, the enhancement of the quality of the development processes of a particular company and, in consequence, of its results in order to guarantee their conformance with the customer's requirements. This methodology would also take into account the ISO 9001 Standard.The Application Experiments includes a clear definition and assessment of the existing practices in the users, the development of the existing procedures into an integrated Methodology for the complete life-cycle of software projects, including documentation and training of the personnel involved in the experiment and, finally, a new assessment, to measure the results of the experiment.
