This indispensable book comprises both an introduction to the CMMI-SVC model and an authoritative reference for it. The contents include the complete model itself, formatted for quick lookup. In addition, the book’s authors have refined the model’s introductory chapters; provided marginal notes to clarify the nature of particular process areas and show why their practices are valuable; and inserted longer sidebars to explain important concepts. Brief essays by people with experience in different application areas further illustrate how the model works in practice and what benefits it offers.
The book is divided into three parts.
Part One begins by thoroughly explaining CMMI-SVC, its concepts, and its use. The authors provide robust information about service concepts, including a discussion of lifecyles in service environments; outline how to start using CMMI; explore how to achieve process improvements that last; and offer insights into the relationships among process areas.
Part Two describes generic goals and generic practices, then details the complete set of CMMI-SVC process areas, including specific goals, specific practices, and examples. The process areas are organized alphabetically by acronym for easy reference.
Part Three contains several useful resources, including CMMI—SVC-related references, acronym definitions, a glossary of terms, and an index.
Whether you are new to CMMI models or are already familiar with one or more of them, this book is an essential resource for service providers interested in learning about or implementing process improvement.
Many people from diverse organizations have contributed their insight and experience to CMMI for Services and are still helping to improve it. The Software Engineering Institute (SEI) continues to play a central role in the model’s ongoing development, as well as in related training and support. The authors of this book have been members of the CMMI for Services Development Team since the model’s inception. Eileen C. Forrester is a senior member of the technical staff in the Software Engineering Process Management program at the SEI and the SEI lead for CMMI for Services. Brandon L. Buteau is a Technical Fellow, technologist, and quality architect at Northrop Grumman and is the lead architect for the model. Sandy Shrum is a senior writer and editor at the SEI and a coauthor of CMMI®, Second Edition, (Addison-Wesley, 2007) and CMMI®-ACQ (Addison-Wesley, 2009).
