The Capability Maturity Model Integration, or CMMI, is a procedure model that gives a clear definition of what an organization should do to encourage behaviors that lead to enhanced performance. With five “Maturity Levels” or three “Capability Levels,” the CMMI defines the most significant elements that are necessary to build great products, or deliver great services, and wraps them all up in a comprehensive model.
The CMMI describes the principles and practices underlying software procedure maturity and is intended to support software organizations develop the maturity of their software procedures in terms of an evolutionary path from ad hoc, chaotic processes to mature, disciplined software processes. CMMI is organized into five maturity levels. A maturity level is a well – defined evolutionary plateau toward achieving a mature software procedure. Each maturity level offers a layer in the foundation for continuous procedure development.
