A Basis of MeasurementDocuments the measurement program for an
organizational unit, covering the process, organization and technology required for the program
A well prepared Basis of Measurement willDocument the purpose of the measurement programDocument the overall measurement scopeProvide a record of all documents used to prepare the
measurement programAlert the stakeholders to potential measurement risks and
opportunitiesProvide a record of agreements made during measurement
preparationAct as a source of support during dispute resolutionsSupport the establishment of relationships with other
measurements programsSupport the identification of relations / correlations between
measurementsFacilitate the review and validation of the measurements
Why Create a Recommended Practice?Setting up a Measurement Program is difficultExisting guidance is often too large and/or too detailedMany organizations seek a more workable set of
recommended practicesThis Recommended Practice is a starting document to
be enriched with Best Practices
Relation to Other DocumentsISO 15939 (Sys and Sw Engineering – Measurement
Process)Closely alignedThe recommended practice is more compact and workable
