Tiivistelmä
The objective of this study is to validate the success of CMMI level 3 implementation in an agile product-centric organization. The purpose of CMMI is to make process predictable and mature. It also helps in increasing efficiency, performance and communication of an organization. It is noteworthy that the case company of this study is already using agile practices.
The study uses action research technique as its research approach. The data came from the analysis of multiple projects done within the case company and feedback on CMMI implementation by teams. Multiple data collection techniques used for this study e.g. Semi-structured interview, questionnaires, discussion, presentation, workshop and observation of internal documents. The data was collected by the researcher in collaboration with an EXTERNAL AGENCY which is monitoring and evaluating the implementation of CMMI in the case company.
The outcome of this study is that the case company has achieved the distinction of CMMI level 3. But the case company is yet to achieve commendable level of impact of CMMI on its operations. The feedback from various teams has established the fact that the case company should perform activities prescribed by CMMI model for next 6-24 months and evaluate its impact. But teams participating in the study are convinced that CMMI will positively impact agile way of working of the case company and improve predictability and performance.
