Our experience is that if you go through all the steps above, you document your
results, and review your findings with management, you will be able to identify
the business case for merging your measurement programs, collection systems, and
measurement databases. The primary business reasons that we have found for integrating
measurement programs are removing duplication of effort, leveraging best
practices, and establishing consistency.
training Programs
Training programs need to include defining required training, planning the training,
and executing the training plans. Different improvement models have placed
different levels of importance on training. Some disciplines will have separate training
programs, with some of them being more formal than others. With multiple
training programs, it is not unusual to have several related courses. To exploit
some of the resulting differences, we offer the following questions and suggested
approaches.
140 n Interpreting the CMMI
Questions you should ask regarding your training programs include:
Does your current training cover your selected CMMI scope?
Do you need more detailed training in some disciplines?
Do you have overlap in your training?
What training should be merged?
What training should remain separate?
Following are some suggested approaches to get to these answers.
