Creating a process for transitioning to object technology

Object-oriented methodologies and processes advise on how a project team can use object technology to create a software-intensive system. While they offer good advice on software development, they are inadequate in terms of how the organization (or the project team) should change its operational culture to one that uses object technology effectively. In other words, while the process of software development is spelled out with these new OO methodologies, what is needed is a process to put this software development process into operation. We describe how such a process can be created and utilized in engendering change management from a traditional to an OO software development culture
