    There are two kinds of processes in &lt;a class=&quot;elementLink&quot;&#xD;

&lt;/p>&#xD;
&lt;p>&#xD;
    All processes must exist within a method plug-in.&amp;nbsp; For information on how to create a method plug-in, see &lt;a&#xD;

&lt;/p>&#xD;
&lt;p>&#xD;
    When creating processes, you should consider starting with one of the predefined processes provided in RMC.&amp;nbsp; The&#xD;
    following are of special interest:&#xD;
&lt;/p>&#xD;
&lt;ul>&#xD;
    &lt;li>&#xD;
        Pre-defined delivery processes for different size projects (in the &quot;Delivery Processes&quot; package)&#xD;
    &lt;/li>&#xD;
    &lt;li>&#xD;
        Pre-defined capability patterns specifically designed to be used when&amp;nbsp;building delivery processes (in the&#xD;
        &quot;Templates for Delivery Processes&quot; sub-package of the &quot;Delivery Processes&quot; package). There is a &quot;RUP Phases&quot;&#xD;
        capability pattern that you can apply first to define your phased process framework, and then there are individual&#xD;
        capability patterns for an iteration for each RUP phase that you can apply within that framework.&#xD;
    &lt;/li>&#xD;
&lt;/ul>&#xD;
&lt;p>&#xD;
    See the Usage information for each process for information on how to apply the process in your context.&#xD;
&lt;/p>&#xD;
