Direct Work Product and Indirect Work Product come
from documents. Affi rmations come from interviews. This example contains information
and Appraisal Team notes that have been collected for a Specific Practice of
the Project Planning process area.
The initial PIIDs contain the direct and indirect work products that are prepared
by the organization and demonstrate how the practices of the CMMI are
implemented in their organization via organizational documentation. In practice,
often the PIID will contain the location of the work products, either hard copy or
electronic. Development of the PIIDs is nontrivial. This PIID development puts
additional work on the organization to prepare for an appraisal.
The SCAMPI A team is required to conduct a Readiness Review of the PIIDs
prior to the start of the onsite SCAMPI A. The Lead Appraiser is responsible for
giving the go-ahead at the Readiness Review to begin the onsite interviews. This
go-ahead statement means that the SCAMPI A team feels the organization is ready
to have the SCAMPI A team show up at the organization and begin the interview
process.
