What is software configuration management?




Q: What is software configuration management?

A: Software Configuration Management (SCM) is the control and the recording of changes that are made to the software and documentation throughout the software development life cycle (SDLC).

SCM covers the tools and processes used to control, coordinate and track code, requirements, documentation, problems, change requests, designs, tools, compilers, libraries, patches, and changes made to them, and to keep track of who makes the changes.

Rob Davis has experience with a full range of CM tools and concepts, and can easily adapt to an organization's software tool and process needs.
