People CMM News - People CMM Model to be updated
On January 3, 2011, the People CMM Team at the SEI opened a 3-month public comment and change request period for members of the community to offer guidance and suggestions and to request changes to the People CMM Team on how the model should be updated to reflect current thinking in workforce practice improvement. Comments (guidance and suggestions on what the next version of People CMM should look like) and change requests (specific changes to People CMM components such as PAs, practices, etc.) are sought for the following topics:
1. What changes should we include in the next version of People CMM to reflect the current practices in the three foundational areas of Human Resources, Organizational Change & Development, and Total Quality Management?
2. What changes should we include in the next version of People CMM to better align the model with the SCAMPI Method in order to increase efficiency of appraisals and reduce confusion in evidence gathering and characterization of implementation?
3. What changes should we include in the next version of People CMM to better align the model with CMMI V1.3?
More information will be available on the SEI Website. The People CMM Change Request document can be found at http://www.sei.cmu.edu/cmmi/tools/cr/.
