Abstract
The Standard CMMI Appraisal Method for Process Improvement (SCAMPI), V1.1 is designed to provide benchmarks relative to Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) models. This appraisal method is applicable to a wide range of appraisal applications, including support for both internal process improvement and external capability determination. The SCAMPI, V1.1 Method Definition Document describes the requirements, activities, and practices associated with each of the processes that compose the SCAMPI. This technical note provides additional implementation guidance related to supplier selection and contract process monitoring applications of this appraisal method. This technical note does not cover current issues such as the definition of "independently led" appraisals or the registration and reuse of appraisal results.
Note: A newer document covers this topic in more detail. If you want to see the newer document, see Standard CMMI Appraisal Method for Process Improvement (SCAMPI) A, Version 1.3: Method Definition Document (CMU/SEI-2011-HB-001).
