Please elaborate.
Response: For any process area to satisfy Level 2, GG 2 Institutionalize a
Managed Process, a Lead Appraiser would expect that ???GP 2.2 Establish and
maintain the requirements and objectives, and plan for performing the process???
is performed. Although documenting the process is only a subpractice of
GP 2.2, it is quite implicit in the statement of GP 2.2, and hence is expected.
The clearest way to meet the expectations of GP 2.2 is to have a documented
process and plan covering the process area. An alternative practice of ???just
doing it??? is generally not acceptable. The term plan in the CMMI has been
expanded to include such documentation as processes and procedures.
Part of an acceptable process description is that it contains an appropriate
level of detail. In some areas of the process, this means that a documented
Appraisals Using the CMMI n 293
procedure is appropriate, but neither ???expected,??? nor ???required??? in CMMI
terminology. Note that there are only a very few mentions of ???documented
procedures??? in the informative parts of the CMMI model.
