To integrate the People-CMM into the CMMI framework, the P-CMM could adopt generic practices in stead of the current Commitment, Ability, Measurement and Verification.
Question is if the current GPs of the CMMI would be sufficient for the P-CMM? I think that changes are needed on the following GPs:
- GP1: Organizational Policy.
This GP should emphasize the importance of a strategy for developing professionals. It should link the workforce strategy to the corporate strategy, crearing a business case to invest in people.
- GP 2.6: Manage configurations.
Is this GP applicable for the P-CMM? If so, then it should probably get a differebt title since as decsribed now in the CMMI it doesn't appeal to P-CMM users.
Missing:
What I miss in the current GPs of the CMMI is rewarding. Though related to compansation, rewarding goes further by emphasizing that the right behavior of profesionals should be recognized and rewarded in all possible ways. This is crucial to change behavior of those involved.
Please add your comments, etc!
