CMMI AUDIT: Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI)

It is applied to projects and organizations to direct process improvement. CMMI provides guidance for quality processes, establishes goals and priorities for process improvement, and serves as a point of comparison for evaluating current processes. It also aids in the integration of historically distinct organizational functions.

The five CMMI levels of maturity are:

Initial. Processes are viewed as reactive, uncontrollable, and unpredictable.

Managed. Projects define processes, which are frequently reactive.

Defined. Processes are well-characterized and well-understood.

Quantitatively Managed.

Optimizing.
