N2 - A good software process improves software products. In the case of a small software company, software development is a matter of survivability due to its limited resources to develop software. XYZ Company is a very small software company that adopted Kanban and DevOps and faced software delivery delays. It is necessary to recommend the software process improvements to solve this problem. Software process improvements are the outcomes of measurement and analysis of maturity levels using the ISO 29110 framework in a qualitative study. They are then analyzed using the Lean Six Sigma tools, namely gap analysis, root cause analysis, and Pareto analysis. Delphi method validated them and resulted in 18 improvement recommendations within four domains, namely (a) product, (b) people, (c) technology, and (d) process. The improvements span across two main processes within software development, namely (a) Project Management (PM) and (b) Software Implementation (SI). The XYZ Company or any agile-based software company could adopt the 18 improvement recommendations to enhance the software process and quality.
