Development Software Process can be designed by a team to a specific project instance.
But, mostly, this kind of process refers to a standardized and well documented methodology usually applied to similar projects
within an organization. Considering this perspective, CPS-Pro can be taken as a methodology in the software engineering extent,
in the sense that it defines an organized set of recommended practices to be used on customization of software products.

Software product customization can be considered an extension of software development.
CPS-Pro is modelled in terms of phases and workflows that defines a group of activities detailed in recommended practices that should be followed during the project life cycle.
The main goal of CPS-Pro is to support the development of new instances of a software product, whether a product from a product line or
simply a customizable product, without impacting in the product core and at the same time minimizing in cost and effort.
CPS-Pro tries to fill the gap left by existing methodologies in the extent of software product customization.
