Building capability allows your organisation to move beyond heroic effort and isolated success to repeatable performance and continuous improvement. Not all organisations need to build all capabilities, but every organisation needs to understand and develop the capabilities that matter most for their success. To do this, leaders must assess the current state of their team’s capability and create a plan to take them from current state to desired state.
CMMI is not a new model in the context of process improvement training and appraisal. Since its development many companies have adopted it to guide their process improvement practices and increase their efficiency through process optimization. Capability is key to the model and it underlies its very functioning. There has also been debate on whether and how CMMI could be applied in conjunction with other practices such as Agile, DevOps and ALM (Application Lifecycle Management), which provides another interesting area worth further investigation and clarification. In particular adopters of practices such as Agile or DevOps could learn to appreciate the advantages of coupling their current efforts with CMMI-based approaches.
