2 Identify and Analyze Innovations
SP 1.3 Pilot Improvements
SP 1.4 Select Improvements for Deployment
SG2 Deploy Improvements
SP 2.1 Plan the Deployment
SP 2.2 Manage the Deployment
SP 2.3 Measure Improvement Effects
SP 1.4 has changed wording. The complete practice now reads, ???Select process
and technology improvements (not improvement proposals) for deployment across
the organization.??? Well, whether you call them ???proposals??? or ???improvements,??? it
doesn??™t matter. This PA emphasizes instituting improving your organization, in a
124 n Interpreting the CMMI
structured fashion, with improvements that stand a better chance of actually working
in the organization. And, those improvements will be studied and analyzed
against measurable criteria. If the reader reviews the Organizational Process Focus
process area, he will find that process improvements are mentioned there as well.
What??™s the difference? In OID, the proposals are subjected to quantitative analysis
of proposed improvements. Metrics residing in the historical database, as well as
defects and where they were introduced, are reviewed as well in order to determine
where, when, and how to make improvements.
