CMMI Frequently Asked Questions and their responses from CMMI Consultant(s)
What is the ideal time frame to achieve CMMI Maturity Level 3 from CMMI Maturity Level 2?
25th June, 2012
Many times we come across this question about the time frame required to achieve CMMI Maturity Level 3 from CMMI Maturity Level 2.
There is no straight forward answer to this question. And a simple answer will be – it depends. It depends on many factors, like:
- Current Processes
- Implementation Status
- Compliance Level
- Cultural Issues
SEI has also prepared some data on different maturity levels achieved by different organizations and time taken to achieve those levels. As per their data collection 20 months was the time period taken as average of the time taken by all organizations achieving CMMI Maturity Level 3 from CMMI Maturity Level 2. But it can lesser or more depending on the actual condition of implementation of the processes and the compliance level.
