Jerry, "NY" = "Not Yet" meaning that the practice has not yet been performed. This can be true of an instance (e.g., a project) in an appraisal, but if it is...
Do you think SEI would add another measure to their CMMI Maturity Profile report, showing a distribution of the number of process performance measures used by...
Jerry, Hillel's response pretty much "answered the mail" on NY = "Not Yet." The "NY" characterization was included to handle the case where a project has "not...
Hi Hillel, I will attempt to cover your answer. The SCAMPI method requires the use of focus projects. A focus project must have evidence for every PA and ...
Orhan, Just a couple of thoughts on this post. Many of the metrics that you've indicated below would not come from the "Requirements Management" process - at...
Orhan, A data point that falls outside of the control limits MAY indicate a special cause of variation, but it may not. Control limits are typically...
Dear Samia, Thank you so much for the explanation. However, I have a fundamental issue with your approach. I am not confident that developing measures that ...
Hillel, You're right ... I actually meant these 9 processes as sub- processes ... pls substitute 'sub-process' for 'process' in my email which is more...
Jeff, I've seen an organization (OU size being about 200) with 6 PPMs and about 300 PPBs. The acutual number of sub-processes is substantially less than the...
Soowan, My impression is that we we're told that the SEI can in fact deny, or retract, the decision of the team This is the reason I'm starting this thread. If...
Dear All, What is the Significance of maturity level 3 and maturity level 4 in CMMI ver 1.2 for software development. Can any one explain me what is Integrated...
Hi Henry, ... This is not correct. If there are at least three projects, the SCAMPI MDD requires that _one_ focus project is used, and that _three_ focus or ...
Two comments: An organization that chooses to statistically manage as little as one or as many as 9 sub-processes will draw attention. Would it not be easy to...
David, Just a humorous thought (well, to ME anyway) - you've suggested that the SEI has set spec limits for how many statistically managed subprocesses are...
Hi Pat, Thanks for the confusion :) We should distinguish management of the work from the execution of the work. Requirements are designed in TS, verified in...
Hi Pat, - Control limits can only be changed by process improvement. (I do not mean going from 3-sigma to 1-sigma) - As far as I know it is the definition...
Hi Niswanathan, What a broad question! This is a question that really needs a long in depth answer and is addressed very well in the Intro to CMMI class. So...
Hi Ralf, You are quite correct. I was operating off of memory and not reading the MDD. However, the point I was trying to make is that since a focus project ...
Good point Jeff, It was my understanding from talking with various HM LAs at the 2008 SEPG in Tampa that the SEI is currently auditing EVERY ML 4 and ML 5...
I have been following this thread with interest - metrics and measurement being my area of interest. I look at this aspect from the stand point of the...
Even if we have 1 sub-process (say REQM) for quantitative management we will need several PPMs and PPBs. I am surprised that nobody asked the question I was...
... Hilel, I think the key words are "most important" and "as defined by the risk mitigation strategy". If the project follows the strategy and there are no...
Orhan It's a sub process. But not granular enough to use as a process lever, and therefore too high level to get meaningful data from a baseline in order to...
Orhan, I was hoping to enlighten, rather than confuse! You suggested measuring "Requirements Designed" as part of the REQM process. I see nothing in the REQM...
Henry, I dunno. I have a scheduled follow-up with the SEI SCAMPI Quality Team next week regarding a recently completed high maturity SCAMPI A that I led in...
Also I would request SEI to publish and inform additional materials which would help in understanding and implementation of High maturity process areas which...
Jeff, Thanks for weighing in on this as it now looks like I'm responding to you rather to yet another response to Orhan! I believe that this "process" vs....
Hi Henry I would appreciate your comments there but it seems they are just any other guys who think process and improvement is for making money for some...
