CMMI - Capability Maturity Model Integration®
CMMI Model :
Capability Maturity Model Integration® (CMMI) is a process improvement approach that provides organizations with the
essential elements of effective processes. It can be used to guide process improvement across a project, a division, or an
entire organization. CMMI helps integrate traditionally separate organizational functions, set process improvement goals
and priorities, provide guidance for quality processes, and provide a point of reference for appraising current processes.
Why Improve processes & business benefits
The quality of a system is highly influenced by the quality of the process used to acquire, develop, and maintain it.
Process improvement increases product and service quality as organizations apply it to achieve their business
objectives.
Process improvement objectives are aligned with business objectives.

product lifecycle from conception through delivery and maintenance. CMMI ® Development Model version 1.2 Consists
of 22 process areas. They are grouped by four categories. The numeric value in parenthesis indicates their grouping by
Maturity Levels. Organizations can choose either way to embark on their process improvement journey.
