Helping Mature
Organizations
Increase Agility
In this part of the topic, I share stories about the LACM organization, a large
CMMI process mature organization that is successfully increasing its agility.
Here you will learn techniques to improve existing traditional CMMI-based
processes in support of increased agility while maintaining CMMI compli-
ancy. In Chapter 3 you will learn about nontraditional approaches LACM
employed using the higher CMMI level practices effectively together with an
Agile approach.
CMMI experts, especially those working inside large traditional CMMI-based
process organizations, should be interested in the LACM case study to learn
effective options in using the higher-level CMMI practices to help an organi-
zation align improvement efforts with the true needs of the organization.
