Planning is meant to prepare adequate foundations for successful and timely completion of the project. The planning process includes:

1.
2. 3. 4. 5.

Scheduling development activities and estimating the required manpower resources and budget
Recruiting team members and allocating development resources Resolving development risks Implementing required SQA activities Providing management with data needed for project control

Some quality plan's elements must be coordinated with the development process
- The schedule of review and software activities should be coordinated with the schedule for completion of the software products (documents and code). - Correction should also be coordinated with the review and test activities. - The configuration management activities and especially the release of planned baseline versions of the software system must be coordinated with the progress of the development process and the completion of the production of the relevant software products.
