CMMI & Agile together bring a more powerful combination of adaptability and predictability than either one alone. When companies combine them, they achieve excellent levels of performance
Embracing CMMI & Agile both together are the mean of going from good to great!
Agile development methods and CMMI best practices are often perceived to be at odds with each other. However, by experience, since 2008 in implementing both together in Egypt, we discovered that organizations who adopted both got the ultimate values.
CMMI and Agile can complement each other by creating synergies that benefit the organization using them. Agile methods provide software development how-to’s that are missing from CMMI best practices that work well especially with small, co-located project teams.
CMMI provides the systems engineering practices that help enable an Agile approach on large projects. CMMI also provides the process management and support practices that help deploy, sustain, and continuously improve the deployment of an Agile approach in any organization.
My case study “CMMI with Agile: Industry Success Stories in Process Improvement” Presentation in CMMI SEPG 2014 North America conference” proofs by data that implementing both CMMI & Agile together is really effective.
As one of the global market leaders in embracing CMMI with Agile and based on a practical experience in many projects that included both, CMMI and Agile, we proofed that agile mindset comes to save the purpose of CMMI by controlling the know-how to be driven by the value.
Through our CMMI with Agile service we support the implementation of an Agile approach in order to satisfy the CMMI model, and help our clients map the Agile practices to the CMMI process areas.
