Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI)

Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) is a process improvement approach to improve organization's performance. It was developed by Software Engineering Institute (SEI) at Carnegie Mellon University.

There five maturity level in CMMI. Each maturity level contains process areas. If an organization wants get maturity levels, it should satisfy all process areas in each maturity level. I summarized maturity level and each process areas as below. You can see a bigger picture by clicking the picture. Rectangles filled with dark blue mean process areas.
