The Capability Maturity Model (CMM) is a framework developed by the Software Engineering Institute (SEI) to help organizations improve their software development process in a measurable way. The CMM describes 5 levels of process maturity from initial to optimized. It was created by the SEI, a research center of the US Department of Defense, to address software quality and process issues important to defense projects. While originally created for the DoD, the CMM has been widely adopted as an industry standard.
It is a methodology used to develop and refine an organization’s software development process. CMM can be used to assess an organization against a scale of five process maturity levels based on certain Key Process Areas (KPA). It describes the maturity of the company based upon the project the company is dealing with and the clients.

Capibility Maturity Model for Finance - OpenView Venture PartnersOpenView
The Capability Maturity Model for Finance is a comprehensive program that includes both immediate exercises and activities, and guidance for long-term success and continual improvement. Participating companies receive:
* An in-depth two-day workshop, under OpenView's guidance, that establishes the fundamentals of the program and serves as its launch point
* A 12 - 18 month development outline that sets objectives, prioritizes initiatives and guides progress
* Individualized check-ins and assessments to help CFOs overcome obstacles, monitor results and make adjustments, as needed

The organization
Does not have an established and documented environment for developing and maintaining software.
Haphazard activities by the members of the project team
No systematic project management process
At the time of crises, projects usually stop using all planned procedures and revert to coding and testing.
Adhoc Processes (No formal process)
Success, if any, depends on heroic actions of few members in the team - Individual dependent outcomes

Software quality system - Quality EngineeringYash Trivedi
We discuss software quality systems of quality engineering in the area of software project management.
Organisations and technologies such as iso , cmmi and six sigma are discussed.
The three-day course, "Introduction to CMMI", introduces participants to the fundamental concepts of the CMMI model. The course assists companies in integrating best practices from proven discipline-specific process improvement models, including systems engineering, software engineering, integrated product and process development and supplier sourcing.
The course is composed of lectures and class exercises with ample opportunity for participant questions and discussions. After attending the course, participants will be able to describe the components of CMMI, discuss the process areas in CMMI, and locate relevant information in the model.
The workshop will help the participants to:
Understand the CMMI framework
Understand the detailed requirements of the process areas in the CMMI V1.3
Make valid judgments regarding the organization's implementation of process areas
Identify issues that should be addressed in performing process improvements using the CMMI V1.3
Process and product quality assurance are very important aspects in development of software. Process
and product quality assurance monitor the software engineering processes and methods to ensure quality.
It is the process of confirming and verifying that whether services and products meet the customer
expectation or not.
This research will identify general measures for the specific goals and its specific practices of Process and
Product Quality Assurance Process Area in Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI). CMMI is
developed by Software Engineering Institute (SEI) in Carnegie Mellon University in USA. CMMI is a
framework for assessment and improvement of computer information systems. The procedure we used to
determine the measures is to apply the Goal Questions Metrics (GQM) approach to the two specific goals
and its four specific practices of Process and Product Quality Assurance Process Area in CMMI.

2. CMM and SEI
1) The Capability Maturity Model (CMM) is a methodology used to
develop and refine an organization's software development process.
2) The model describes a five-level evolutionary path of increasingly
organized and systematically more mature processes.
3) CMM was developed and is promoted by the Software Engineering
Institute (SEI), a research and development center sponsored by the
U.S. Department of Defense (DoD). SEI was founded in 1984 to
address software engineering issues and, in a broad sense, to advance
software engineering methodologies. More specifically, SEI was
established to optimize the process of developing, acquiring, and
maintaining heavily software-reliant systems for the DoD. Because the
processes involved are equally applicable to the software industry as a
whole, SEI advocates industry-wide adoption of the CMM.
3. CMM and ISO
The CMM is similar to ISO 9001, one of the ISO 9000
series of standards specified by the International
Organization for Standardization (ISO). The ISO 9000
standards specify an effective quality system for
manufacturing and service industries; ISO 9001 deals
specifically with software development and
maintenance. The main difference between the two
systems lies in their respective purposes: ISO 9001
specifies a minimal acceptable quality level for
software processes, while the CMM establishes a
framework for continuous process improvement and is
more explicit than the ISO standard in defining the
means to be employed to that end.
4. CMM's Five Maturity Levels of
Software Processes
1) At the initial level, processes are
disorganized. Success is likely to depend on
individual efforts, and is not considered to be
repeatable, because processes would not be
sufficiently defined and documented to allow
them to be replicated.
2) At the repeatable level, basic project
management techniques are established, and
successes could be repeated, because the
requisite processes would have been made
established, defined, and documented.

3) At the defined level, an organization has
developed its own standard software process
through greater attention to documentation,
standardization, and integration.
4) At the managed level, an organization monitors
and controls its own processes through data
collection and analysis.
5) At the optimizing level, processes are constantly
being improved through monitoring feedback from
current processes and introducing innovative
processes to better serve the organization's
particular needs.
