CMMI

Capability Maturity Model Integration

What it actually means

A process maturity framework that rates how disciplined and repeatable an organization's engineering and management processes are, from ad hoc (level 1) to optimizing (level 5). A maturity level is evidence about the organization's process, not about any particular product — a distinction sometimes lost in proposals.

Where you'll meet it

Source selection criteria and organizational process improvement initiatives.
