228 Approaches Using <strong>ISO</strong>–<strong>CMMI</strong> ® Synergy<br />
Table 7.5 Process Improvement Steps Based on <strong>ISO</strong>–<strong>CMMI</strong> ® Synergy for<br />
Organizations at CMM ® Maturity Level 2 (continued)<br />
Step <strong>ISO</strong> <strong>CMMI</strong> ®<br />
12 Perform measurement, Review implementation of the CMM ® SPTO<br />
tracking, reviewing, <strong>and</strong> KPA for adequacy in terms of the <strong>CMMI</strong> ® .<br />
auditing (5.6, 7.3.4, 8.2.1, Revise if necessary to implement PMC.<br />
8.2.3, 8.5.2, 8.5.3). Invoke PPQA specific practices.<br />
Invoke CM <strong>and</strong> MA SG 2.<br />
Implement CAR PA.<br />
Revisit OPF <strong>and</strong> IPM, which were already<br />
established.<br />
Perform GP 2.6 (DI 1), Manage<br />
Configurations; GP 2.8 (DI 3), Monitor <strong>and</strong><br />
Control the Process; GP 2.9 (VE 1), Objectively<br />
Evaluate Adherence; <strong>and</strong> GP 2.10 (VE 2),<br />
Review Status with Higher Level Management;<br />
in all relevant PAs.<br />
Perform GP 3.2 (DI 4), Collect Improvement<br />
Information, in all relevant PAs.<br />
Need <strong>ISO</strong> required procedures for the<br />
corrective <strong>and</strong> preventive actions (<strong>ISO</strong><br />
8.5.2, <strong>and</strong> 8.5.3).<br />
13 Other Need to address control of production<br />
<strong>and</strong> service provision (<strong>ISO</strong> 7.5.1).<br />
Need to address h<strong>and</strong>ling of customer<br />
property (<strong>ISO</strong> 7.5.4).<br />
Need to address preservation of the<br />
product during internal <strong>process</strong>ing (<strong>ISO</strong><br />
7.5.5).<br />
Need to address control of monitoring<br />
<strong>and</strong> measuring devices (<strong>ISO</strong> 7.6.1).<br />
Need procedure for h<strong>and</strong>ling of<br />
nonconforming products (<strong>ISO</strong> 8.3).<br />
implementing PAs at higher capability levels (Figure 7.4). Most benefits are<br />
reflected in the scope of <strong>process</strong> implementation <strong>and</strong> in institutionalization,<br />
stability, repeatability, <strong>and</strong> ease of <strong>improvement</strong>. At maturity or capability<br />
levels 3 <strong>and</strong> higher, the scope of implementation is organization wide instead<br />
of project specific, thus enabling economies of scale.<br />
Even for those organizations <strong>using</strong> the staged representation, implementing<br />
selected maturity level 3 PAs should not be a problem. Most <strong>process</strong><br />
<strong>improvement</strong> professionals <strong>using</strong> CMM ® v1.1 underst<strong>and</strong> that establishing<br />
a software EPG (which is part of the OPF KPA) or implementing the Peer<br />
Reviews KPA bring benefits to the organization.<br />
The steps for implementing <strong>process</strong> <strong>improvement</strong> based on <strong>ISO</strong>–<strong>CMMI</strong> ®<br />
synergy for organizations at CMM ® level 3 maturity are shown in Table 7.6.
