Abstract
The Brazilian Government established a public policy instrument to identify and stimulate software production resulting from technology development and innovation carried out in Brazil. In order to accomplish this effort, CERTICS software process assessment methodology was created and established in Brazil. Its construction has been based on the reality of local software development organizations, in effort to achieve consensus within the community of interest, and guided by methodological references including the ISO/IEC 15504 (SPICE) Standard. CERTICS Methodology includes an Assessment Reference Model and an Assessment Method. This article presents the CERTICS Assessment Reference Model and statements on how it is compliant with ISO/IEC 15504 Requirements for Process Reference Models, Process Assessment Models and Organizational Maturity Models.
