Suggest two advantages and two disadvantages of the approach to process maturity that is embodied in the SEI’s Capability Maturity Framework.

What will be an ideal response?

Advantages of process improvement frameworks
1. The approach provides a means of measuring the state of a process and a
structured approach to introducing process improvements.
2. It is useful as a way of building on the experience of others in process
improvement.
Disadvantages of process improvement frameworks
1. Like any measurement system, there is a tendency to introduce
improvements to improve the measured rating rather than concentrate on
improvements that meet real business goals.
2. The maturity model approach is expensive and bureaucratic to operate. It is
not really suitable for organisations that use agile development.
