CMMI and ISO

1. CMMI is an Integrated Model and Capability Maturity, for process improvement.

2. CMMI is more specific about the type of process is run: process development and maintenance of products and services, processes of interaction with suppliers and processes for managing and providing services.

3. CMMI is more prescriptive as to what is hoped that the quality system should be required.

1. The ISO is a standard for implementing a quality system in an organization.

2. ISO has a set of requirements for the organization (or the part within the range) has a quality system, the organization must meet the quality system.

3. The ISO is much more general and applies to any organization or any type of process. The ISO is not as specific.

CMMI and ISO

1. CMMI is a model focused on certain types of specific processes. CMMI for Development focuses on process improvement to develop and maintain products and services, hence can be used as sale profits, selling CMMI in terms of addressing business problems.

2. CMMI does prescribe specific requirements for quality system. For example, as the CMMI for Development is geared towards developing and maintaining products and services to be performed prescribe specific estimates and size estimates.

1. ISO has a more general approach is intended that the organization implements a quality system, regardless of the type of process you have.

2. ISO does not prescribe specific requirements for the type of process quality system implemented by the organization. The organization establishes what is your quality system.

CMMI Maturity LevelsCMMI posed as a gradual improvement, to levels that are used. By level organizations can implement a program of gradual improvements; other models do not contain a set of requirements to be implemented.

Common features in all areas of process

CMMI Composition

Continuous Representation The continuous

representation allows an organization to select a group of process areasand improve processes related to it.

Select the order of improvement that best meets the business objectives of the organization and mitigate risk areas of the same. Objectively improve organizational

process. Allow capacity increased

visibility achieved in each individual process area.

The Engineering process areas also integrate the processes associated with different engineering disciplines into a single product development process, supporting a product oriented process improvement strategy. Such a strategy targets essential business objectives rather than specific technical disciplines. This approach to processes effectively avoids the tendency toward an organizational “stovepipe” mentality.

Process Management process areas contain the cross-project activities related to defining, planning, deploying, implementing, monitoring, controlling, appraising, measuring, and improving processes.

Project Management process areas cover the project management activities related to planning, monitoring, and controlling the project.

Support process areas cover the activities that support product development and maintenance. The Support process areas address processes that are used in the context of performing other processes. In general, the Support process areas address processes that are targeted toward the project and can address processes that apply more generally to the organization.
