The Operation and Management of a Software Company

The Operation and Management of a Software Company: This book is an entrepreneurial guide to creating and balancing the functions required to be successful, from employees to reviewing project history. The book speaks to those thinking about becoming software entrepreneurs and those that already are, but looking for more direction. The book begins with a discussion of the required staff structure and continues with the cost of development and management, writing a specification, estimating the work, developing the application, project management, invoicing, contracts and stress to name a few. Every day, for 15 years, Mr. Miner looked for something or someone that could provide him with a bit of advice, answer a simple question, or point him in the right direction. Not having found what he was looking for, this book is his contribution to supporting others.
