In this context it has become crucial to select a subcontractor based on the maturity and competence. The result of this work shall help answer the question: "How does one select a software vendor?". There exist a number of acquisition approaches and frameworks including acquisition approaches, such as SW-CMM, SA-CMM, ISO-15504 (aka SPICE), ISO-9000, EuroMethod, IEEE-1062 and some more minor ones. These documents were analyzed and compared. This work provides two results: A comparison of the approaches discussed from a practical point of view and a method built upon the existing frameworks and methods. This is the first version of a complete second-generation approach. This method is callled MASS.
