9 Part 9: Templates

9.2 Basics about Product Templates

9.2.2 Work Products without Templates

Most products of the V-Modell correspond to a document; thus also an appropriate product template is available. The other products for which no template exists are divided into the following classes:

System Elements

System Elements (e. g. »Hardware Module or »Software Module) are component groups or program codes.

External Interface Products

Products such as the contract exist both at the acquirer (as »Contract) and at the supplier (as »Contract (Acquirer)). However, they are of course not prepared twice, but exchanged (in the form of a file, letter, fax etc.) via the »Acquirer/Supplier Interface.

Product Library, »Delivery, etc.

There are additional products, such as the »Product Library or the delivery. Although these are prepared in the course of the project, they are neither documents nor part of the system.
