The document discusses a Continuous Improvement Maturity Model (CIMM) that assesses organizations on two axes: improving processes and developing people & organization. It describes five levels of process improvement maturity from creating a solid foundation to achieving future-proof processes. Each level focuses on different aspects like standardization, continuous improvement culture, efficiency, capability and reliability. The model also covers developing the organization through a long term orientation, quality management, openness, learning and agility. Balancing improvements across both axes is key to overall maturity.
