Notes


Summary

This chapter covers some of the things to consider when combining or aligning multiple process improvement initiatives. Considerations include process improvement team structure, integration of existing procedures, measurement programs, and training programs. Different improvement models have placed different levels of importance on some of these areas. This has naturally resulted in different levels of implementation across the disciplines.

None of the ideas presented in this chapter are difficult to understand. Mainly, they concern understanding the policies, processes, procedures, plans, courses, and people you currently have in place, understanding how they fit together within the expanded scope of the CMMI, and the vision the organization has created for its process improvement journey.

While we have presented these concepts in a simple, straightforward fashion, this effort actually will take many hours of hard work. Do not underestimate the level of effort required to successfully accomplish these tasks .
