CMMI Consultancy Service

CMMI not only rates the maturity of companies’ process, it gives a level of assurance that the company being given the work will be able to complete the job in the time and price quoted for the project.
In order for the local software development industry to become more competitive on a global scale, it will need to fall into line with international standards, so that local companies seeking international contracts will be able to meet the CMMI level specified by international companies.
Having originated in the US defense sector, CMMI is now being adopted increasingly widely to drive Business Improvement in diverse organisations.

1 – Consistency

CMMI provides a proven approach that has enabled diverse organisations to drive out real benefits in terms of dramatically improved project predictability and consistency. Whilst any or all of the above factors may drive an organisation’s initial interest in CMMI, the key benefit from implementing the model that executives focus on is consistency in delivery.

2 – Cost Saving

CMMI driven process improvement also delivers real cost savings such as earlier and more effective error detection, and hence reduced cost of remediation, more effective management of change so you spend less on re-work, reductions in schedule variability and increased cost predictability.

3 – Self Improvement

There is also the aspect of self improvement. Companies will be able to use CMMI as a way of differentiating themselves locally and by achieving a level of CMMI will have naturally improved their processes which will make them more competitive. The heat of competition is now driving significant interest in CMMI.  Development, Service Provider and Acquisition/Outsourcing organisations are all adopting CMMI both as a differentiator and as an enabler to enhanced performance.

4 – Market demand

Competing companies are utilizing CMMI for  industry best practices and reaping the benefit of it. Companies have adopted this approach to best meet the customer demands and competition. —Growing popularity of CMMI in the market is also a big reason of adoption of this practice by companies.
—Subcontractors providing custom software to companies creating solutions for the federal government must either themselves be following CMMI, or be covered by their client.  All the parts of the software product delivered to the government must be following CMMI somewhere in the supply chain.

5 – Performance demand

—The purpose of CMMI is to improve upon the performance of the existing organizational standards, processes and procedures and NOT to redefine or them. —CMMI is meant to help organizations improve on their “capability” to consistently and predictably deliver the products, services, and sourced goods their customers want, when they want them and at a price they’re willing to pay.
CMMI can be applied to create a process improvement solution appropriate to the context of each unique organization and can provide a path for an organization to achieve its performance goals.

6 – Process improvement

A CMMI driven improvement project will deliver a framework to standardize your processes, ensuring that your business’s best practices are captured, shared and adopted so that you can move staff around your organization and leavers won’t take business critical information away with them.
—CMMI includes 25 different process areas to cater comprehensive business process improvement solution. —Each process area is made of two kinds of goals, two kinds of practices, and a whole lot of informative information helping management to make strategies.

Why Use a Model?

Without a model of how an organization work, which functions it need, and how those functions interact, it is difficult to lead efforts to improve. A model gives us an understanding of discrete elements in an organization and helps to formulate language and discussion of what needs to be improved and how such improvement might be achieved. A model offers the following benefits:

  • provides a common framework and language to help communicate
  • leverages years of experience
  • helps users keep the big picture in mind while focusing specifically on improvement
  • is often supported by trainers and consultants
  • can provide a standard to help solve disagreements

Characteristics Of The Maturity Levels

Under the CMMI methodology, processes are rated according to their maturity levels, which are defined as: Initial, Repeatable, Defined, Quantitatively Managed, Optimizing. Currently supported is CMMI Version 1.3. CMMI is registered in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office by Carnegie Mellon University.

CMMI Model Framework

—3 Constellations are defined to help improve a given business need.  Currently there are three (3) constellations:

—Development: For improving the development of solutions.
—Acquisition: For improving the purchasing of products, services and/or solutions.
—Services: For improving delivery of services and creation of service systems (say, to operate a solution but not buy it or build it in the first place).

Summary

A high maturity organization where all individuals recognize their role and responsibility for business success is an organization that is more likely to achieve success.
What an organization gets out of process deployment and CMMI appraisals is a reflection of what the organization puts into it. Organizations that focus on a just wining the CMMI certification hardly find the real benefits of adopting the quality framework.
High maturity, with its focus on quality and process performance objectives, puts organizations and projects in a position to succeed.
