The Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) is a comprehensive process meta-model that describes the specific goals, practices, and capabilities that should be present in a mature software process. Specific goals establish the characteristics that must exist if the activities implied by a process area are to be effective. Specific goals establish the characteristics that must exist if the activities implied by a process area are to be effective. Specific practices refine a goal into a set of process-related activities. Specific practices refine a goal into a set of process-related activities.
