There is no clear specification
of the minimum information that must be collected. The types of information
collected are defined in the model: the organization??™s common set of
measures plus other measures, lessons learned, process improvement proposals,
and process artifacts. For measures, the ???minimum??? is the organization??™s
common set of measures applicable to the processes performed. The Appraisal
Team will have to judge whether what is collected, stored, and, more importantly,
used is appropriate to the OSSPs, the projects, and the organizational
and support groups. Too much can be as big a problem as too little.
