CMMI® Institute Extends CMMI® V2.0 to Include Services and Supplier

Management

CMMI V2.0 Improves Business Performance by Building and Benchmarking World-Class

Capabilities for Product Development, Services and Supplier Management.

Pittsburgh, PA (4 December 2018) – CMMI Institute today expanded its Capability

Maturity Model Integration (CMMI)® V2.0 product suite, adding Services and Supplier
Management views to the model’s globally recognized set of best practices,
benchmark tools, appraisal and performance measurement guidance. The CMMI V2.0
product suite enables organizations to analyze and appraise internal operations, and
helps organizations measure their capabilities against best practices, pinpoint areas of
improvement and achieve higher performance.

Designed to optimize business performance and achieve measurable results, CMMI

Development V2.0 was first released in March of this year. In addition to product
development, CMMI V2.0 now includes views that advance selection and
management of suppliers as well as delivery and management of internal and external
services. Today’s announcement continues CMMI Institute’s commitment to advance
CMMI V2.0 and help organizations understand and improve their capabilities—in
people, processes and technologies—across every facet and function of the enterprise.

Keeping with the goal to gain better, faster business results, additional product suite
improvements include:

• Significant enhancements to the CMMI V2.0 model viewer user experience

• Improvements and clarifications to the performance-based appraisal method,
along with a brand-new appraisal toolkit
 • New training courses and materials that teach new and existing users how to
assess, improve, and sustain process capability and performance, including an
eLearning model upgrade course to complement the instructor-led option

“In today’s business environment, it is essential for all organizations to understand their
capabilities, gauge where and how to boost those capabilities aligned to business
needs, and focus resources on continuous improvement,” said Kirk Botula, CMMI
Institute CEO. “The CMMI V2.0 model and resources provide the critical foundation for
that work, helping leaders extract improved performance, leverage best practices and
benchmarks, and get the results they seek efficiently and effectively.”

The updates to CMMI V2.0 provide the following benefits in each area of
concentration:

• Development: Improve an organization’s capability to develop quality products

and solutions that meet the needs of customers and end users.
• Services: Improve an organization’s capability to efficiently and effectively
deliver quality service offerings that meet market and customer needs.
• Supplier Management: Reduce enterprise risk and improve supply chain
management capability.

Organizations that build and leverage capabilities see decreases in defects, re-work,
cost, time-to-market, and risk. They also see increases in quality, productivity, customer
satisfaction, performance and new/repeat business.

“With CMMI V2.0 we’ve reduced appraised preparation time by 50 percent across 90
percent of our projects,” said Hong Ou, head of EPG Group Information Technology
Department for China Merchant Bank. “As a result, we were able to meet senior
management’s request to conduct an appraisal to cover all teams, and it made it
much easier for us to adopt Agile. We like V2.0 and it helped to produce a better
assessment.”

According to McKinsey & Company data, more than 50 percent of companies do not
have standard processes, process assets and jobs aids to measure what matters in their
companies, while a third cite difficulties in monitoring plans and making needed
adjustments. To address these challenges, the core of the CMMI V2.0 model is
organized by the critical capabilities of every organization that, when properly
leveraged, improve business performance and resiliency:

• Ensure Quality
• Engineering and Developing Products
• Delivering and Managing Services
• Selecting and Managing Suppliers
• Planning and Managing Work
• Managing Business Resilience
• Managing the Workforce
• Supporting Implementation
 • Sustaining Habit & Persistence
• Improving Performance
