Process-Maturity Model Tools

[Debbie Stewart <Debbie_Stewart -at- SIECOR -dot- COM>]

We are finally moving up the process maturity model. We are beginning to
      implement applications development tools, document management tools,
      and project planning tools. Could you good folks list the tools you
      use and just a word or two about what you like or dislike. I don't
      want a long discussion or debate but more of an inventory of
      off-the-shelf tools that are available. From there, we will do some
      investigative work to see if a product meets our needs and can be
      supported within our distributed environment. We have a distributed
      midrange architecture, use Lotus Notes extensively, have intranet,
      and are pretty much on the bleeding edge in technology. We just have
      an ad hoc shop and are beginning to develop structure and
      methodology!



What are some of the tools your applications personnel are using for
      systems development, i.e. CASE tools?

What are tech writers using for Document Development/Management
      applications?

What are some good project planning applications?

What are some of the authoring tools (for Web, Intranet, hardcopy) I should
      look at?

You can reply off list and I will do a summary. Thank you!
