Abstract
This document contains a set of templates for software configuration management (CM) documents to aid engineers and managers to implement software configuration management processes per the requirements specified in ISO/IEC standard 12207, Software Life Cycle Processes (1995), including Amendment 1:2002 and Amendment 2:2004; and standard 15288, System Life Cycle Processes (2002) as it pertains to software elements. For software CM processes and related activities and artifacts, these standards-driven templates provide generic descriptions and instructions that, as needed, can be tailored to a specific organization's or project's needs. Thirteen templates are provided. They are:
Template # 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11A 11B 12
Template Name Software Configuration Management Policy Software Configuration Management Strategy Software Configuration Management Organization Charts Software Configuration Management Plan Software Configuration Management Process Software Configuration Identification Procedure Software Configuration Change Control Procedure Software Configuration Status Accounting Procedure Software Configuration Item Check-in and Check-out Procedure Software Configuration Audits and Reviews Procedure Subcontractor Software Configuration Control Procedure External Interface Configuration Control Procedure Software Product Release and Delivery Procedure
In addition to the templates shown above, this document provides five different aids to help tailor the templates.

What's New in Version 3.0
Version 2.0 of this document, ably written by Ron Berlack, provided a set of software configuration management templates to enable software engineers and managers to implement software configuration management processes per the requirements specified in ISO/IEC standard 12207, Software Life Cycle Processes. In Version 3.0, these templates have been updated to add the software CM requirements of ISO/IEC standard 15288, System Life Cycle Processes. In addition to revising existing templates, we added three new templates and included new diagrams throughout the document. We also expanded and improved the document's text to make the document more readable and usable.
Version 3.0, with its added templates, improved graphics, and expanded text should prove beneficial to you as you begin to implement and execute the very important process of software configuration management. An itemization of Version 3.0 enhancements appears below.

Added template for software CM strategy.
This template not only helps insure a better CM plan, but also insures compliance with the 15288 standard.
Added template for a check-in/check-out procedure.
This procedure enables version management of configuration items and uses a CM repository to store configuration management data.
Added template for product release and delivery.
This template added to insure compliance with specific requirements in the 12207 standard.
Added an introduction to each template.
Templates are preceded by introductory text to help readers understand the process being supported.
