4.4 <strong>Appraisal</strong> Data Collection<br />
4.4.intro<br />
<strong>Appraisal</strong> teams base their findings on observations that, in<br />
turn, are based on objective evidence gathered from one or<br />
more sources. The requirements in this section identify the<br />
sources of objective evidence recognized by <strong>CMMI</strong> appraisal<br />
methods. As indicated in Appendix A, all three sources of objective<br />
evidence identified below are required <strong>for</strong> Class A appraisal<br />
methods. At least two sources are required <strong>for</strong> Class B<br />
methods, one of which must be interviews. At least one source<br />
is required <strong>for</strong> Class C methods.<br />
4.4.1 (See Appendix A)The method shall collect data by administering<br />
instruments (e.g., questionnaires, surveys).<br />
4.4.2 (See Appendix A) The method shall collect data by conducting<br />
interviews (e.g., with project leaders, managers, practitioners).<br />
4.4.3 (See Appendix A) The method shall collect data by reviewing<br />
documentation (e.g., organizational policies, project procedures,<br />
and implementation-level work products).<br />
4.5 Data Consolidation and Validation<br />
4.5.1 (AB) The method shall require appraisal team consensus in<br />
decisions when determining the validity of observations, creating<br />
findings, and establishing ratings.<br />
4.5.2 The method shall require a mechanism <strong>for</strong> consolidating the<br />
data collected during an appraisal into accurate observations<br />
according to the following criteria:<br />

Use of consensus as a team decision-making<br />
technique is discussed throughout applicable<br />
sections of the MDD. A summary of consensus<br />
decisions needed is depicted in “Data<br />
