Integrated Project Management Measures in CMMI

Abstract

Project management is quite important to execute projects effectively and efficiently. Project management is vital to projects success. The main challenge of project management is to achieve all project goals, taking into consideration time, scope, budget constraints, and quality. This paper will identify general measures for the two specific goals and its ten specific practices of Integrated Project management Process Area in Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI). CMMI is a framework for improvement and assessment of computer information systems. The method we used to define the measures is to apply the Goal Questions Metrics (GQM) paradigm to the two specific goals and its ten specific practices of Integrated Project management Process Area in CMMI.

Measures of Organizational Training in the Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI)

“…Various researches aimed to measure the software process that has been suggested, such as [21,[31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41]. The works that are related the most to our work are represented in the works of [21,31,32,[35][36][37][38][39][40][41]. Baumertand McWhinney [42] point out to several observations that are usefulfor measuring the practices (general characteristics) that are defined in the Capability Maturity Model for CMM/SW.…”
