Capability Maturity Model Integration

1
Capability Maturity Model Integration

• CS4320
• Fall 2003

2
From Whence It Comes

• CMM issues
• Too many CMM models
• More flexibility
• More explicit linkage to business goals
• Improved visibility into product life cycle
• Tighter coupling to ISO standards

3
Multiple Models

• IPPD Integrated Product and Process Development
• SW Software Engineering
• SE Systems Engineering
• SS Supplier Sourcing
• SEI recommends that if you select SW, you also
  select SE

4
Multiple Representations

• Staged most like old SW-CMM, 5 levels
• Initial, Managed, Defined, Quantitatively
  Managed, Optimizing
• Continuous most like SPICE, multiple ratings in
  different areas
• Incomplete, Performed, Managed, Defined,
  Quantitatively Managed, Optimizing
• Two levels of practices Base and Advanced

5
Staged, Level 2

• Requirements Management
• Project Planning
• Project Monitoring and Control
• Supplier Agreement Management
• Measurement and Analysis
• Process and Product Quality Assurance
• Configuration Management

6
Staged Level 3

• Requirements Development
• Technical Solution
• Product Integration
• Verification
• Validation
• Organizational Process Focus
• Organizational Process Definition
• Organizational Training
• Integrated Project Management for IPPD
• Risk Management
• Integrated Teaming
• Integrated Supplier Management
• Decision Analysis and Resolution
• Organizational Environment for Integration

7
Staged Level 4

• Organizational Process Performance

Assessment

• SCAMPI Standard CMMI Appraisal Method for
  Process Improvement
• Three Levels
• Class A Rigorous, in-depth investigation of
  processes, basis of improvement activities
• Class B Initial (first time), Incremental
  (partial) or self-appraisals
• Class C Quick-look, Incremental

21
IPPD

• A management process that integrates all
  activities from product concept through
  production/field support, using a multifunctional
  team, to simultaneously optimize the product and
  its manufacturing and sustainment processes to
  meet cost and performance objectives

22
Generic IPPD Cycle
23
Key Tenets of IPPD

• Customer Focus
• Concurrent development (process/product)
• Continuous Life Cycle planning
• Flexibility, Contractor Support
• Robust design, good process
• Event-driven scheduling
• Multidisciplinary Teams
• Empowerment
• Seamless Management Tools
• Proactive risk management

Homework 4

• Case Study Specialty Medical Company
• Do a CMMI assessment (Staged or Continuous).
  What level does the company appear to be?
• Writeup assessment/recommendations in following
  format
• Executive Summary
• Purpose
• Current Development Environment
• Findings
• General
• CMMI Assessment
• KPA (Only those applicable are discussed)
• Recommendations for improvement
• Looking at 4-5 pages (SS, 12pt) total.
