Abstract: This paper presents the results of a study of how software process and Software Process Improvement (SPI) is applied in actual practice in the software industry using the indigenous Irish software product industry as a test-bed. This study focuses on the role and influence of both the Company Founder and the Software Development Manager on the initial formation of software development process practices.
