Many times specifications and
standards leave you a little confused. Here is a book that tells you all
about the CMM model, based on the practices in an organization that is
assessed at Level-4 in the model (the organization, Infosys, is assessed at
Level-5 just when this book is released). The organization of the book in 3
parts in terms of Project Initiation, Project Planning and Project Execution
is extremely logical and reflects the flow of a project in an organization. |
