CMMI Process areas Goals (required) Needed to implement a process area Specific (Specific Goals) Eg: Incidents and requests are identified and managed (SG2 IRM) Generic (Generic Goals) GG1: Achieve specific goals GG2: Institutionalize a managed process GG3: Institutionalize a defined process Note also that GG3 for the level two process areas are as an organization if you want to get level three, outside the scope of this assessment, but does take action! GG4: Institutionalize a quantitatively managed process GG5: Institutionalize an optimizing process Practices (expected) Help in achieving the goals Specific for a process area (Specific Practice) Eg: Monitor the resolution of incidents and requests (SP2.3 IRM) Generic (Generic Practice) Eg: Identify and involve the relevant stakeholders of the process as planned (GP2.7 IRM)

What is CMMI for Services? CMMI for Services is a CMMI constellation that covers the activities required to manage, establish, and deliver services. As defined in the CMMI context, a service is simply an intangible, non-storable product CMMI for Services has been developed to be compatible with this broad definition, and its goals and practices are therefore potentially relevant to any organization concerned with the delivery of services, including enterprises in sectors such as defense, information technology, health care, finance, and transportation Referenced frameworks and standards: ITIL, ISO20000, IT Service CMM, and COBIT

Why a CMMI for Services? We are living in a ‘Service society’ Over half of the US DoD budget is service-oriented A growing portion (~80%) of the US economy is in services Legislation such as Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) There is a growing emphasis on quality Customer discontentment has grown due to disappointments in outsourcing (where the emphasis was cost cutting).

CMMI levels applied to services Mature service management prioritizes its improvements into 5 levels : 1. As-is services, not a professional approach 2. Basic service management and support discipline 3. Organizational consistency of level 2-3 practices, including service delivery, and advanced management practices 4. Quantitative predictors of key service qualities 5. Optimization of key service qualities
