SUMMARY:Everything You Need to Know About Integrating CMMI\, ISO 9001 and A-SPICE
DESCRIPTION:Register Today \nWhen the gap between management and engineering is widening … \nThe auto industry today is replete with internal rancor. While the multi-model approach seemed effective at the time it was introduced\, ISO/TS\, CMMI and Auto SPICE have been poorly integrated throughout North America\, and as a result\, management and engineering are acting like independent entities. Miscommunication leads to trust issues arising between the “ISO/TS side of the business” (management) and the “CMMI and Auto SPICE side of the business” (engineering). This mistrust leads to friction\, which causes waste. \nThere are many reasons to pursue a Multi-Model Improvement approach to streamlining and strengthening the way you do business: \n\nYou are tired of wasting effort by doubling your work – i.e.\, doing your work in one tool and reporting in another\nYou are hampered by a widening gap between management and engineering\nYou are struggling to improve requirements churn and volatility\, meet schedule and budget\, and perform the work you do every day\nYou want better visibility\nYou want to streamline reporting and eliminate duplication and overlap\nYou want to retain top employees\nYou want to have better quality products\nYou want greater customer satisfaction\nYou want to prevent losing business to competitors\n\nJoin us for the latest Webinar in our “Everything You NEED to Know!” Series: “Multi-Model Improvement.” Designed specifically for organizations that have a CMMI Maturity Level 2 or Level 3 rating and want the benefits of aligning CMMI\, ISO/TS and Auto SPICE\, “Multi-Model Improvement” gives you everything you NEED to get started! \nRegister Today

SUMMARY:Integrating CMMI\, ISO 9001 and A-SPICE
DESCRIPTION:When the gap between management and engineering is widening … \nThe auto industry today is replete with internal rancor. While the multi-model approach seemed effective at the time it was introduced\, ISO/TS\, CMMI and Auto SPICE have been poorly integrated throughout North America\, and as a result\, management and engineering are acting like independent entities. Miscommunication leads to trust issues arising between the “ISO/TS side of the business” (management) and the “CMMI and Auto SPICE side of the business” (engineering). This mistrust leads to friction\, which causes waste. \nThere are many reasons to pursue a Multi-Model Improvement approach to streamlining and strengthening the way you do business: \n\nYou are tired of wasting effort by doubling your work – i.e.\, doing your work in one tool and reporting in another\nYou are hampered by a widening gap between management and engineering\nYou are struggling to improve requirements churn and volatility\, meet schedule and budget\, and perform the work you do every day\nYou want better visibility\nYou want to streamline reporting and eliminate duplication and overlap\nYou want to retain top employees\nYou want to have better quality products\nYou want greater customer satisfaction\nYou want to prevent losing business to competitors\n\nJoin us for the latest Webinar in our “Everything You NEED to Know!” Series: “Multi-Model Improvement.” Designed specifically for organizations that have a CMMI Maturity Level 2 or Level 3 rating and want the benefits of aligning CMMI\, ISO/TS and Auto SPICE\, “Multi-Model Improvement” gives you everything you NEED to get started! \nRegister Today
