non-process impro ement Appraisals
A stated goal of SCAMPI A is to support two non-process improvement uses often
associated with Software Capability Evaluations:

Table 20.1 shows usage modes for SCAMPI A appraisals.
SCAMPI v1.2 does not make the use of only external team members a requirement
for these non-process improvement types of evaluations. It would be reasonable
to expect that this external-only requirement will continue to be imposed by
both Federal, individual corporate and other acquisition policies to avoid conflict
of interest. Some organizations, in an attempt to avoid the appearance of possible

conflict of interest, and to obtain a fresh perspective of their processes, require one
or more appraisal team members to be external to the organization.
