The Best Practices Roundtables & Reports
The Best Practices Roundtables & Reports are one of the 2003 initiatives of the Business Committee of the IGDA. The end goal of these roundtables is to prepare a summary report on each topic for distribution to the game development community via the IGDA web site. In sharing this best-practice knowledge, we hope that developers will thereby be able to improve their human resources, schedule their projects more efficiently, work with their publishers to optimally market and promote their games, improve quality assurance testing on their games, and bring greater financial stability to their companies. The five topics covered in 2003 were:

• Best Practices in Resource Management and Scheduling [2003] (PDF)
• Best Practices in Human Resources [2003] (PDF)
• Best Practices in Finance [2003] (PDF)
• Best Practices in Promotion and Marketing [2003] (PDF)
• Best Practices in Quality Assurance and Testing [2003] (PDF)
