%X Very small organizations are suffering when they embark on software process improvement initiatives such as CMMI-DEV or ISO/IEC 15504-5. The ISO/IEC29110 basic profile has been defined as solution for these small companies, and literature related to this standard provides some insights on the potential results and benefits for VSEs. In this sense, two of the topics which have not been deeply studied yet are the survival analysis of VSEs, and an analysis of ISO/IEC29110 basic profile areas. In fact, this paper provides a survival analysis of 90 improvement initiatives, and an analysis of the ISO/IEC29110 basic profile areas. Non-parametric and semi parametric models are used in order to analyse survivability and we analyse project management and software implementation practices defined by ISO/IEC29110 basic profile
