There is a widespread demand for credible, quantitative evidence about the results of process improvement based on CMMI models. The results presented here are from publicly available conference presentations, published papers, and individual collaborations with the SEI.

Together, these results provide proof of concept about the potential of CMMI-based process improvement. The results show that CMMI often leads to very impressive improvements in product quality, project performance, and organizational performance; however, the individual results presented here may not be repeatable in every organization.
