A Quality-Distinction Model of IT Capabilities: Conceptualization and Two-Stage Empirical Validation Using CMMi Processes

Factors Impacting on CMMI Acceptance Among Software Development Firms: A Qualitative Assessment

“…Pusatli and Misra stated that the CMMI certificate is considered one of the highest standards in the software industry. A number of performance results supporting the benefits of CMMI have been reported in the literature, such as reductions in cost and improvements in productivity, work schedule, and work quality (Chrissis, Konrad & Shrum, 2003;Khan & Keung, 2016;Kishore, Swinarski, Jackson & Rao, 2012).…”

Proposed Derivation of the Integrated Capability Maturity Model as an Environmental Management Maturity Model

“…Typically, maturity model frameworks represent progressive, sequential paradigms for improving organizational processes via an evolutionary, five-phase paradigm. Typically, the basic stages of process maturity modeling paradigms are as follows: 1) immature, ad hoc, random processes, 2) reactive and managed processes, 3) understandable and expressed processes, 4) quantitatively managed processes, and 5) optimized processes [8,9,10]. Generally, framework models derived from the CMM and CMMi incorporate some or all of these phases within their fundamental architecture.…”

“…The industrial process maturity model incorporates a five-phase improvement paradigm that incorporates the CMM stages as its inspiration [8]. The Sustainability Manufacturing Maturity Model (SMMM) also incorporates a systematic approach to improving processes [22].…”

Structure of job profiles in companies with CMMI-5 certification in the Colombian Software Industry

“…Given this argument, the inquiry on competence in these three software companies qualified with CMMI-5 is to identify and analyze the following aspects: the key profile in the area of technology of these organizations; the skills that have been acquired or strengthened with the implementation of CMMI model; activities and results achieved through these skills and how the competences have contributed to that organizations to become consolidated as leaders in the creation and development of software in Colombia. Some studies were conducted by the government and the Colombian companies [3] [4] [9] and studies to implement the CMMI methodology for small and medium organizations [10], the evaluation of a process of implementing CMMI in a organization [11], implementation based on CMMI model for other areas such as academia and health [12] through a new method, conceptualizing IT capabilities in organizations with a focus on developing products and services in IT [13], and other works concerning on the implementation of CMMI model in different contexts for improving organizational processes and software, investigations such as Moreno [14], Falesi [15], Lukasiewicz, K. and Miller, J. [16] Lopes [17] and works made by big organizations related with skills and job profiles as presented by Ernst and Young [7] specifies that the support organizations are the individuals who work in them and It is necessary to know the skills that require the job profile and the skills that people offer in the labor market.…”
