Overview of CMMI 1.2

• Evolutionary step for CMMI that aims at
• Reduced complexity
• Expanded Coverage
• Improved confidence and usefulness of SCAMPI
• The changes affect the full product suite
• Model
• Appraisal Method
• Training

3
What is new in the model?

• Reduce Complexity and Size
• Removed advanced practices and common features
• Removed Supplier Sourcing addition
• Merged Integrated Supplier Management with
  Supplier Agreement Management
• IPPD has been revised and simplified
• One book
• Updated terminology
• Expanded coverage
• Added Hardware amplifications
• Work Environment coverage with OPD and IPM
• Notes and examples ease implementation in Service
  environment
• New architecture to allow expansion

4
Other significant model changes

• Improved Part One Overview
• Explained better the usage of Generic Practices
• Generic Practices Goals are moved to part two
  with PAs
• Added explanations on how PAs support
  implementation of Generic Practices
• Added GP elaborations for GP 3.2
• Only SAM can be considered not applicable
• Project Startup emphasis in OPF and IPM

5
Significantly Modified Process Areas

• IPM IPPD
• Emphasis on maintaining the defined process
  through the project lifecycle (SP 1.1)
• Establish projects work environment (SP 1.3)
• IPPD in one goal Apply IPPD Principles (SG3)
• OPD IPPD
• Establish work environment standards (SP1.6)
• New IPPD goal - Enable IPPD Management (SG2)
• SP 2.1 Establish Empowerment Mechanisms
• SP 2.2 Establish Rules and Guidelines for
  Integrated Teams
• SP 2.3 Balance Team and Home Organization
  Responsibilities
• OPF
• Emphasis on process deployment (SG1)
• Rephrased processes of the organization to
  organizations processes (SP1.2)
• SG2 Now reads Plan and implement process
  improvements i.e. focus on improvements not
  activities. Moved SP 2.3 and SP 2.4 to new goal
  (SG2)
• New SG3 Deploy Organizational Process Assets and
  Incorporate Lessons Learned
• SP 3.1 Deploy organizational process assets
  (former SP2.3)
• SP 3.2 Deploy standard processes (New!)
• SP 3.3 Monitor Implementation (New!)
• SP 3.4 Incorporate Process-Related Experiences
  into the Organizational Process Assets (former
  SP2.4)

6
Significantly Modified Process Areas

• REQM
• SP 1.4 reads Maintain bidirectional traceability
  among the requirements and work products. No
  Plans!
• Bidirectional is demystified An association
  among two or more logical entities that is
  discernable in either direction
• RD
• SP 1.1 is now Elicit Needs i.e. base practice
  is removed
• Intro notes speak about maintenance projects
• SP 3.1 Establish Operational Concepts and
  Scenarios takes the material from TS SP 1.2
  Evolve.
• SP 3.5 now consolidates the former base and
  advanced practice
• TS
• SP 1.1 merges base and advanced practice
• Special sub practice in SP 1.1 added for 3rd
  party components Identify candidate COTS
  products that satisfy the requirements.
• Old SP 1.2 moved to RD
• SP 2.3 merges base and advanced practice

7
Significantly Modified Process Areas

• SAM
• Old SP 2.1 Review COTS Products is removed
• Material from ISM is moved to SAM
• SP 2.2 Monitor Selected Supplier Processes
• SP 2.3 Evaluate Selected Supplier Work Products
• VAL
• SP 2.2 now reads Analyze Validation Results no
  more and identify issues
• VER
• SP 3.2 now read Analyze Verification Results no
  more and identify corrective action

8
SCAMPI Changes

• Reduce Complexity and ambiguity
• Provide Additional Guidance where needed
• Strengthen appraisal planning and conduct
• Strengthen appraisal reporting
• Define Appraisal Validity Period
• Strengthen lead appraiser requirements
