As I mentioned earlier, Capability Maturity Model “CMMI” is a collection of best practices for the development and maintenance of both products and services. It is the application of process management and quality improvement concepts to software development and maintenance and, designed to guide in selecting improvement strategies by determining current maturity of the software process.
The Five Levels of CMMI
CMMI Level 2 – Key Process Areas
CMMI Level 1-Initial: processes are unpredictable and poorly controlled
CMMI Level 2-Repeatable: Can repeat previously mastered tasks

The CMMI is a collection of best practices for the development and maintenance of both products and services. It was developed to enhance and replace the use of multiple process models, while preserving the government and industry investments in process improvement. By combining multiple models into a single model, the CMMI has enabled the use of common terminology, components, appraisal methods, and training material across multiple disciplines. This, in turn, reduces the cost of establishing and maintaining process improvement efforts across the enterprise using multiple disciplines to deliver products or services. The CMMI currently covers systems engineering, software engineering, integrated product and process development, and supplier sourcing. The CMMI represents the consolidation of the following models:
