New CMMI® Products and Services

New products and services from the SEI include the certification for SCAMPISM Lead Appraisers, the CMMI-ACQ version 1.2, and the CMMI constellation for services (CMMI-SVC) released in March 2009. MDM is now conducting appraisals against the Services constellation of the CMMI.

Version 1.3 of the CMMI is tentatively scheduled to be released around November of 2010. For more information go to http://www.stsc.hill.af.mil/CrossTalk/2010/01/1001PhillipsShrum.html

In recognition of the need to address service-oriented organizations the SEI developed a version of the CMMI focusing on services; that version was released in March 2009. MDM is authorized to both train and appraise using the CMMI-SVC constellation. Click here for more information on the CMMI-SVC constellation.

The SEI will now accept and recognize only SCAMPI V1.2 Class A appraisals that use a CMMI V1.2 model. SCAMPI Class B and C appraisals must also be conducted using a CMMI V1.2 model. MDM provides the CMMI® V1.2 introductory class, along with training on SCAMPI V 1.2. Also, SEI is requiring all Lead Appraisers to pass a test and become certified.

If you’ve already had the Introduction to CMMI® V1.1, you can be upgraded to version 1.2 by taking the SEI upgrade training. Course registration for “CMMI® Version 1.2 Upgrade Training” is available at the SEI Web site: http://www.sei.cmu.edu/products/courses/p57.html
