Written by experienced process improvement professionals who have

developed and implemented computer based systems in organizations around

the world, Interpreting the CMMI: A Process Improvement Approach, Second

Edition provides you with specific techniques for performing process

improvement. Employing everyday language and supported by real world

examples, the authors describe the fundamental concepts of the CMMI

model, covering goals, practices, architecture, and definitions, and

provide a structured approach for implementing the concepts of the CMMI

into any organization. They discuss getting started in the process

improvement effort, as well as how to continue on to high maturity. They

walk you through the myriad of charts and graphs involved in statistical

process control and offer practical recommendations. They also provide

information on blending different process improvement initiatives into

organizational programs (including agile development), and in this

edition include more in-depth information. The authors distill the

knowledge gained in their combined 70 years of experience in project

management, software engineering, systems engineering, metrics, quality

assurance, appraisals, training, process improvement, and team building.

Whether you are new to process improvement or an experienced

professional, this volume will save you time wasted on false starts,

false promises by marketers, and failed deadlines. The authors have been

responsible for successfully implementing process improvement in several

different organizations. This book is based on real-life experience, not

on academic theories. It provides workable solutions to inherent

challenges such as appropriate roles and responsibility, resistance to

change, and meaningful documentation, thus transforming CMMI concepts

into practical applications.
