What is CMMI?
CMMI for Development is a reference model that covers development and
maintenance activities applied to products and services
The CMMI for Development constellation consists of two models: CMMI for
Development + IPPD and CMMI for Development (without IPPD)

Overview of CMMI
CMMI® (Capability Maturity Model® Integration) is
A process improvement maturity model for the development of products and
services
An approach that provides organizations with the essential elements of effective
processes
It consists of best practices that address development and maintenance
activities covering the product lifecycle from conception through delivery and
maintenance
It can be used to guide process improvements across a project, a division, or
an entire organization
CMMI helps integrate traditionally separate organizational functions
CMMI helps set process improvement goals and priorities
CMMI helps provide guidance for quality processes, and provide a point of
reference for appraising current processes
5
Satyam Confidential
The base model contains 22 Process Areas that cover the systems and
software engineering disciplines
In addition
3 process areas cover Integrated Product and Process
Development (IPPD)
1 process area covers Supplier Sourcing
IPPD is a systematic approach that achieves a timely collaboration
among relevant stakeholders throughout the life of the product to
better satisfy customer needs and expectations

The CMMI Product Suite provides best practices for product and service
development and maintenance. Some of the benefits of these best practices
are:
Align engineering and management activities to the business goals
Expand the scope and visibility of the product lifecycle and engineering
activities to meet customer expectations
Incorporate lessons learnt from additional areas of best practice (e.g.,
measurement, risk management, supplier management etc)
Implement more robust practices leading to high maturity

We don’t know what we don’t know
If we can’t measure it, we really don’t know much about it
If we don’t know much about it, we can’t control it
If we can’t control it, we are at the mercy of chance
Focus on the Customer!

Why do Companies Need Six Sigma?
Companies use Six Sigma to reduce variation in products
and processes leading to -
Fewer defects
Reduced cycle times
Increased capacity and throughput
Lower costs
Higher revenues and
Reduced capital expenditures

Six Sigma – How is it Done
Six Sigma can be applied to any process; Business, Design, Sales &
Support etc.,
Fundamental model is to identify and convert a defect into a
measurable value, understand the impact, identify a process-

Six Sigma (6 ) is a high-performance, rigorous, disciplined and metric-
driven methodology that uses data and statistical analysis to measure
and improve company’s operational performance
Conceptualized in the early 80s for 'breakthrough improvements' in
processes and product design, leading to higher monetary benefits and
customer delight
The term "Six Sigma" relates to the number of mathematical defects in
a process. Six Sigma practitioners focus on systematically eliminating
the defects so they can get as close to "zero defects" as possible
Six Sigma aims for virtually error free business performance by the
identification and elimination of defects in manufacturing and service
related processes

CMMI Representation with Six Sigma
Source – SEI Web Site
Six Sigma can be used at each maturity level, starting as a driving force, accelerate at
Level 1 and progressing to the organization-wide application of what were originally local
improvements
Level 5 is reached when an organization can focus on continuous process improvements
The following are examples of
Six Sigma analytical tool kit
linked to CMMI process areas -
Decision Analysis & Resolution
(DAR) - can use concept
selection methods such as Pugh
Matrix
Risk Management (RSKM) -
can use Failure Modes & Effects
Analysis (FMEA)
Technical Solution (TS) - can
use Design FMEA

CMMI & Six Sigma – Complementing Each Other
The focus of Six Sigma was to improve manufacturing processes
Over a time of its maturity it has become more widely used, organizations
have been applying this data-driven improvement initiative to the rest of
their business life cycles and supply chains
While the CMMI provides a framework for project management and
software engineering, the efficiency of these processes is complemented by
the usage of the Six Sigma methodologies
The characteristic of CMMI maturity level 5 is continuous improvement,
wherein Six Sigma provides methodologies for this journey of continuous
improvement.

Implementing both models together can lead to:
Greater focus on the customer leading to customer delight and healthier bottom lines [ROI]
Continuous process improvements
Decision making culture
A data driven organization
Helps encourage a change in behavior as opposed to ‘achieving a level’
Reinforcing change as a way of life
Good measurements are essential to successful Six Sigma implementation and support
CMMI goals
Six Sigma can help accelerate CMMI implementation at ALL levels of maturity
CMMI seamlessly fits into Six Sigma approaches and provides detailed best practices and
guidance on its specific implementation in software development
Six Sigma and CMMI can be used as the tactical engine for high capability and high maturity

Benefits of Both Models – What does SEI have to say ?
"A lot of the driving influence is that corporations are using Six Sigma
everywhere else, and now they're extending that to the software domain.
Software organizations are being called upon to use this method that's being
used successfully elsewhere in the organization."
- Jeannine Siviy Deputy director, Carnegie Mellon's Software Engineering
Institute (SEI) Dynamic Systems
A lot of big companies are developing their own software engineering
variant of Six Sigma training, putting software-specific examples into the
normal Six Sigma curriculum.

Quantitative Project Management
Quantitative Project Management [QPM], a level 4 process area, is tomanage the project with metrics to achieve the project’s establishedquality and process-performance objectives -
Identifying goal metrics (refer to contract, MSA, SLA, for identifying applicablemetrics) and target, lower limit and upper limit values
Identifying control metrics for each goal metric to monitor & control during theexecution of the project
Determine target, lower limit and upper limit values for control metrics fromthe projects / Organization level baselines
Statistically analyzing the control metrics data to identify and understandprocess variation
Predict the performance of goal metrics based on control metric performance
Implementing corrective actions in case control metrics are operating outsidethe established limits
Simple terms – Execution of Shewart’s Plan – Do – Check – Act with help ofStatistical process control techniques
Six Sigma Projects can be Executed and Demonstrated at Project Level

Steps to Bring the Project Back on Track
Step 1 – Based on the data gathered, Process Capability was performed to check if the
process performance is quantitatively improving the project’s objectives
Based on the data analysis, it has been observed that the data is not normal as indicated.
P < 0.5, Data is
not normal
Legend – Minitab was used to generate graphs in the project
51

Data Transformation
As the data was not normal, Johnson transformation was used to translate
the data to normal distribution

Specific Goal and Practice Summary - QPM
SG 1 Quantitatively Manage the Project
SP 1.1 Establish the Project’s Objectives
SP 1.2 Compose the Defined Process
SP 1.3 Select the Sub processes that Will Be
Statistically Managed
SP 1.4 Manage Project Performance
SG 2 Statistically Manage Sub process Performance
SP 2.1 Select Measures and Analytic Techniques
SP 2.2 Apply Statistical Methods to Understand
Variation
SP 2.3 Monitor Performance of the Selected Sub
processes
SP 2.4 Record Statistical Management Data
For individual processes –
CMMI identifies what activities are expected
Six Sigma identified how activities might be improved (more effective, more efficient)
CMMI could meet fully meet the Goals
and Practices but still write poor plans
But with a combination of both the model
and methodology Six Sigma can be used
to improve planning process and write
better plans
61
Satyam Confidential
Thus …
The project issue was resolved through use of Statistical Techniques and
functions of Quantitative Project Management
These techniques were applied to simple project monitoring and control
process which transitioned into quantitatively managed project monitoring
and controlled process
Thus, implementing Six Sigma Methodology and CMMI
practices helped achieve Continuous Improvement and
establish Organizational Innovation and Deployment.
