The What of CMMI for Development CMMI for Development is a reference model that covers the development and maintenance activities applied to both products and services. A framework describing key elements of effective process … a guide to evolve from ad-hoc, immature practices to mature, disciplined process A collection of good practices (project/process management, engineering, support) to achieve business goals relating to Cost, Schedule, Functionality, Product/Service quality A reference to improve your business processes CMMI best practices state WHAT to do, but neither WHO should do it, or HOW it is to be done

CMMI Representation Options Staged Organization Maturity Level approach Process Areas clustered by maturity level Known and defined path for process improvement Organization chooses target Maturity Level Maturity Level provided as option in SCAMPI Continuous Process Capability approach for organization Process Areas organized by process threads Cluster of process area for improvement chosen by org Organization chooses target Capability Levels in chosen PAs Capability profile by PA provided in SCAMPI (Equivalent Staging possible, if opted for – here, it becomes similar to Staged !)

Approach for CMMI Become Familiar With CMMI-Dev## Understand Content and Scope Interpret Model for Your Organization Select Representation Staged Continuous Perform SCAMPI C / Gap Analysis w.r.t CMMI (Mapping of Existing Processes to CMMI) Develop and Implement Transition Plan Extend PI Infrastructure to address CMMI needs Leverage investment in any legacy model (ISO/CMM) ## two other constellations, namely, CMMI-SVC & CMMI-ACQ also available

About SCAMPI family SEI acknowledged methods for progressive appraisals with varying depth - Approach (C)  Deployment (B)  Institutionalization (A) Any SCAMPI (A/B/C) Appraisal includes: ATM Training (in C, if team is used) SEI Authorized ‘Intro to CMMI’ training for ATMs Preparation & Planning Onsite Appraisal Report generation & Registering with SEI SCAMPI A to be lead by SEI Authorized Lead Appraiser SCAMPI B/C to be lead by SEI Authorized Team Lead SCAMPI Appraisal Result valid for 3 years

Timeline to move between Levels Data indicate variability in the time needed to move between Maturity Levels However, appraisal results indicate some average values - Maturity Levels Average timeline Level 1 to 2 5 months Level 2 to 3 19 months Level 3 to 4 25 months Level 3 to 5 23 months

Challenges and Risks in Transition As the Senior Manager, expect the following barriers and help the organization overcome them - Resistance to any form of Change ‘Please Excuse Me, I’m busy’ Process improvement would happen, but my delivery is more important The ‘Quality group’ is marginalized – anyway they are there to make quality happen Consider some risks in transition - Management commitment ! Trap of ‘best’ implementation – they succeeded this way syndrome Pace of organizational change – neither too fast nor too slow Open to accept mistakes and rectify
