Since its launch in 1993, the Software Engineering Institute’s Capability Maturity Model^® (CMM^®) has emerged as an industry standard for improving processes used to develop and manage software. Its recommended path for increasing organizational capability is proven to enhance on-time delivery and product quality while reducing software development costs.

In 2000, the Software Engineering Institute introduced the Capability Maturity Model Integration^® (CMMI^®), which extends the Software CMM to include systems engineering and supplier sourcing best practices.
