3.2 Project Monitoring and Control (PMC)
According to CMMI-DEV, the aim of PMC is to establish and maintain plans
that define project activities. PMC has 2 specific goals (SG) that enclose 10
specific practices (SP). The mapping described in Table 1 was carried out.
3.3 Requirements Management (REQM)
According to CMMI-DEV, the aim of REQM is to manage the requirements of
the projects products. REQM has 1 specific goal (SG) that encloses 5 specific
practices (SP). The mapping described in Table 2 was carried out.

4 An Experience Report: An Internal CMMI Appraisal
Once theoretical comparisons between Scrum and CMMI (level 2 for PP, PMC
and REQM) were established, an internal assessment was carried out to con-
firm these hypotheses. An internal assessment against a CMMI reference model
provided evidences about good agile practices, strengths and weaknesses for
achieving a CMMI level 2 in agile contexts.
