Become an SEI Partner for the Delivery of TSP Services

The SEI is seeking qualified organizations to become SEI Partners for providing Team Software Process (TSP) services.

As an SEI Partner for TSP, you can help an organization build self-directed pure software teams or integrated product teams from 3 to 20 engineers. Because the TSP is highly scalable, it provides benefits for large projects, small projects, multiple-team projects, geographically distributed projects, projects involving more than one organization, and projects with a few hundred developers. Engineers who use the TSP can plan and track their work, establish goals, and own their processes and plans.

Which Partner arrangement is right for you?

The SEI has three types of Partner arrangements designed to fit the way you deliver TSP services. For more information, refer to the documents below that support the TSP license agreement.

Commercial Use
Commercial-use Partners are permitted to teach TSP courses and lead TSP teams outside their organization according to the specifications of the TSP license agreement.

Academic Use
Academic-use Partners are educational institutions that provide TSP training as part of their academic curriculum. The SEI offers academic-use Partners the benefit of the PSP academic bundle—a grouping of PSP for Engineers course fees and PSP Developer certification fees at a lower academic rate.

Internal Use
Internal-use Partners can sponsor SEI-Authorized PSP Instructors and SEI-Certified TSP Coaches for delivering TSP Product Suite Courses and TSP Product Suite Services inside their organization. The SEI offers price incentives to commercial-use Partners whose customers become internal-use Partners.
