What is CMM?..

Answer / sm

The Capability Maturity Model for Software (also known as
the CMM and SW-CMM) has been retired, and CMMI (Capability
Maturity Model Integration) replaces it. The SEI no longer
maintains the SW-CMM model, its associated appraisal
methods, or training materials, nor does the SEI offer SW-
CMM training.

What is CMM?..

Answer / jd

The Capability Maturity Model for Software describes the
principles and practices underlying software process
maturity and is intended to help software organizations
improve the maturity of their software processes in terms
of an evolutionary path from ad hoc, chaotic processes to
mature, disciplined software processes. The CMM is
organized into five maturity levels:

1) Initial. The software process is characterized as ad
hoc, and occasionally even chaotic. Few processes are
defined, and

success depends on individual effort and heroics.

2) Repeatable. Basic project management processes are
established to track cost, schedule, and functionality. The

necessary process discipline is in place to repeat earlier
successes on projects with similar applications.

3) Defined. The software process for both management and
engineering activities is documented, standardized, and
integrated into a standard software process for the
organization. All projects use an approved, tailored
version of the organization's standard software process for
developing and maintaining software.

4) Managed. Detailed measures of the software process and
product quality are collected. Both the software process
and products are quantitatively understood and controlled.

5) Optimizing. Continuous process improvement is enabled by
quantitative feedback from the process and from piloting
innovative ideas and technologies.
