  A Guide to the CMMIa®: Interpreting the Capability Maturity Modela®, 2nd edition is designed to lead users through the hundreds of practices, 600 pages, and thousands of sentences in the CMMIa®. The Guide`s approach, the Pictogram Methoda„¢, is unique and proven by the success of the 1995 A Guide to the CMMa® with more than 25,000 copies in 5 languages used worldwide.

A Guide to the CMMIa® is based on the CMMIa® for DEV, vl.2

Illustrates and interprets all 22 Process Areas, their Specific and Generic Goals and Practices.

Incorporates the Pictogram Method, translating the model`s text into pictures with a small vocabulary of intuitive, hand-drawn icons.

Gives readers, with its pictograms and highly readable text, a quick grasp of the model`s concepts, as well as insight into its complexity of components.

Draws on the author`s wide experience with process maturity models and their implementation in organizations.

Answers questions such as, "What is the CMMI?" "Where did the model come from?" "What does Capability Maturity mean?" "What are the `staged` and `continuous` representations?" in its "must" read Introduction and Chapter 1.

Chapters 2, 3, 4, and 5 picture and interpret the levels of the Capability Maturity Modela® Integration, v. 1.2.

Discusses in clear, straightforward language how implementers and appraisers can develop their own interpretation of the model.

The author recommends putting the CMMI to work with implementation threads rather than focusing on Process Areas and checklists of practices. While the CMMI is often applied in appraisals of Process Areas, best results come from improving the work project teams do every day.

Models are abstractions, but projects are 3-dimensional flows of activities performed by people under pressure to meet schedules.

Real world projects follow implementation threads, such as a Change Request mechanism that links practices in many Process Areas.

Lasting improvements that remove causes of rework and increase production capability rest on a Lessons Learned and Feed Forward (LLaFF) thread.

More efficient production steps come from LLaFF-ing, repeated Lesson Learned and Feed Forward steps. From a Lessons Learned session come those elusive but prodigiously sought process assets: What we did ” the life cycle and work breakdown structure How we did it ” measurements like effort hours per task and number and complexity of change requests What went wrong ” processes to fix Many projects collect Lessons Learned, but payoff comes with a systematic Feed Forward mechanism ” people assigned to make improvements in work practices for the next use. The continuing goal, less rework and more efficient production, is sustained, not by Process Areas, but by optimizing activities in the many implementation threads leading to the enterprise measures for Productivity, Quality, and Time.
