A team has developed and tested new software to control airplanes during flights.

 In the context of software development for controlling airplanes, it is critical to ensure that the software complies with all relevant standards and regulations. This is not only a matter of meeting project requirements but also a matter of safety and legal compliance. The project manager should conduct a validation process to confirm that the software meets all the necessary regulatory criteria. This process typically includes a series of tests, audits, inspections, and reviews of documentation to ensure that every aspect of the software adheres to the required standards21. References:
