CMMI

• So far CMM for software (SW-CMM)
• Issues in a system --gt more than software
• e.g. system engineering, electronics,
  manufacturing
• Many CMMI models different emphasis
• Based on
• Capability Maturity Model for Software (SW-CMM)
• System Engineering Capability Model (SECM)
• Integrated Product Development Capability
  Maturity Model (IPD-CMM)

Improvement over SW-CMM

• More explicit linkage between management and
  engineering
• More coverage in life cycle and engineering
  activities
• Incorporation of best practices from additional
  areas, e.g., management, measurement
• Additional organizational functions
• More compliance with relevant ISO standards
• More proven and robust high maturity practices

Why CMMI?

• Specific CMM models for different disciplines
• Expensive for various adoptions, trainings, and
  management styles across an organization
• Integration !!!
• Two different representations
• Staged and Continuous
• Easier to migrate from SW-CMM to CMMI using
  staged representation
