The ISO/IEC 29110 is a software engineering standard widely adopted by Very Small Entities (VSEs), especially the Basic Profile, yet its implementation is complex, demanding expertise. VSEs often focus on delivering work products, while auditors assess compliance based on the detailed activities and tasks defined by the standard, creating a critical disconnect. This article proposes a novel self-assessment approach for VSEs using a formal Colored Petri Net (CPN) model focusing on the Basic Profile of the standard. This model visualizes and simulates work product-task relationships from an auditor’s perspective, making complex processes more comprehensible. Our web-based system facilitates assessment via a yes/no questionnaire. Responses inject tokens into the CPN, generating a scoring report aligned with ISO/IEC 29110 activities and tasks. Users can trace non-compliant tasks and visualize task-work product relationships, specifically highlighting what an auditor seeks. By bridging this perspective gap, our CPN-based visualization empowers VSEs to better understand, comply with, self-assess, and ultimately achieve ISO/IEC 29110 certification more efficiently.
