Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) is a process improvement framework that helps organizations enhance their performance. It provides guidelines for developing effective processes in areas such as software development, service delivery, and product manufacturing. By following CMMI, organizations can assess their current capabilities and identify areas for improvement. CMMI is structured into five maturity levels, ranging from initial to optimizing. Each level represents a different stage of process maturity, with specific goals and practices to achieve. Organizations can use CMMI to streamline operations, reduce risks, and improve overall quality, ultimately leading to better project outcomes and customer satisfaction.
