The document discusses implementing CMMI using open-source tools. It identifies critical success factors like learning and continuous improvement. While proprietary software has costs and vendor lock-in risks, open-source can generate extra business value if costs are controlled and tools are integrated and adapted to processes. The document recommends using open-source tools like Linux, Alfresco, SVN and SonarQube for operating systems, documentation, configuration management and quality, along with proprietary tools like JIRA and Microsoft Office.

Start with Process and Organization, and
only then Tools
Tools adapted to the Processes
Control Costs
Integrate Tools
Generate Business Value

Costs (direct + indirect)
Security
No vendor lock-in
Quality

Proprietary software
A report by the Standish Group
(2008) states that adoption of opensource software models has resulted
in savings of about $60 billion per
year to consumers.
