PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To detect possibly-erroneous trace information.SOLUTION: A server device 10 comprises an extraction part 15 and an error candidate determination part 16. The extraction part 15 extracts work elements to be executed by a software system and work elements associated with the work elements in the order of definition from a workflow that defines work elements relating to flow of work, work elements associated with the work elements and a main processing body for executing each work element. The error candidate determination part 16 determines, on the basis of the order of appearance of work elements in trace information that shows a correspondence relationship between each deliverable and the work element of the software system designed on the basis of the workflow, and also on the basis of the order of definition of the extracted work elements, whether or not a correspondence relationship between the order of appearance of the work elements and the order of definition of the work elements is different.
