We’ve designed our products to complement our training and consulting offerings, or each product can also stand alone as a jump-start kit for process improvement. Our CMMI Accelerator Toolkit includes sample policies and process descriptions that are designed to be customized for your use, helping you avoid the drudgery of creating the documents and files on your own. Simply change the header name to your organization’s name and adopt it, just the way it is worded, and get started with higher quality, quicker.

agileCMMI
agileCMMI is an incremental and iterative method that leads you directly down the path to greatness. Our branded approach allows organizations to build things, pilot them, learn as they go, get feedback, determine what changes to make, and to make them. Because agileCMMI calls for performing incremental actions and building upon everything that has come before, work is done in short iterations. Your organization goes through an incremental and iterative process over time, until you have a complete, high performing engineering process.
agileCMMI is available for licensing or as a package of services delivered by our world-class consultants.
