There aren't many differences between the NESMA and IFPUG definitions and counting guidelines for FPA. There is a document describing all the differences, which can be found by clicking here.

NESMA is Dutch by origin but it is used in some other countries as well, as far as I know.

Hi Edwin,
Thank you very much..

As far as I have understood, the different is the only in the enhancement project count. NESMA use so called Impact Factor to adjust the enhancement project count.

Thanks...

Many people mix up these concepts, are IFPUG Function Points and NESMA Function Points the same? Without going into details, in this post I try to explain the similarities and differences between IFPUG and NESMA through a simple example.
