Metrics Councilor

Configuration Manager

To manage and version control the source code and project documents. To provide check-in/check-out of source/binaries/text files, and to build/re-build the checked-in sources. The Configuration Manager along with the Software Development leader identifies the changes that go into a release. Baseline the releases appropriately and generate release documents. Provide sufficient labeling and maintain version control log. To incorporate the CM change control process efficiently into the project. Identifying environmental requirements developer work areas, configuration management repository for configurable items and associated configuration management records, separate environments for SQA, pre-release and production. Periodically review the change requests, priorities the requests and assign them for completion to the software engineering team.
