"Interpreting the CMMI: A Process Improvement Approach, Second Edition"


Process Performance Baselines (PPBs) and Process Performance Models
(PPMs) are established and used to manage quality and process performance
objectives (see Chapter 19).
In the Organizational Innovation and Deployment process area, a quantitative
understanding, specifically PPBs and PPMs, is used to analyze prospective
and piloted innovations.
The generic practices (GP) used in all of the process areas also support the
expanded focus on measurement. For example:
GP 2.8 Monitor and Control the process area. Actual process performance is
measured against the plan.
GP 2.10 Review Status with Higher Level Management. Measures support
the ???appropriate visibility??? asked for in the GP and provide clear, objective
status reporting.
