The Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI®) is an internationally recognised process improvement approach for organisations involved in Product and Service Development. The model consists of best practices, organised into process areas, that address the development and maintenance of products and services across the entire product lifecycle for a range of disciplines (e.g. software, hardware, systems engineering etc). It can be used to guide, benchmark and/or appraise process improvement across an entire organisation or a smaller organisational scope (e.g. a department, programme or project).
This seminar gives an insight into what a CMMI® based process improvement programme (PI) entails. The seminar is split into two parts, both of which are run as interactively as possible (see below for key topics).
