Summary

Contribute process related experiences to organizational process assets.

Description

Refer to the Organizational Process Definition (OPD) (CMMI-SVC) process area for more information about establishing organizational process assets, establishing the organization’s measurement repository, and establishing the organization’s process asset library.


Refer to the Organizational Process Focus (OPF) (CMMI-SVC) process area for more information about incorporating experiences into organizational process assets.


This specific practice addresses contributing information from processes in the defined process for the work to organizational process assets.

Example Work Products



  1. Proposed improvements to organizational process assets
  2. Actual process and product measures collected from the work
  3. Documentation (e.g., exemplary process descriptions, plans, training modules, checklists, lessons learned)
  4. Process artifacts associated with tailoring and implementing the organization’s set of standard processes for the work


Subpractices



1. Propose improvements to the organizational process assets.

2. Store process and product measures in the organization’s measurement repository.

Refer to the Measurement and Analysis (MA) (CMMI-SVC) process area for more information about obtaining measurement data.


Refer to the Work Monitoring and Control (WMC) (CMMI-SVC) process area for more information about monitoring work planning parameters.


Refer to the Work Planning (WP) (CMMI-SVC) process area for more information about planning data management.


 

These process and product measures typically include the following:
  • Planning data
  • Replanning data


 

Examples of data recorded by the work group include the following:
  • Task descriptions
  • Assumptions
  • Estimates
  • Revised estimates
  • Definitions of recorded data and measures
  • Measures
  • Context information that relates the measures to the activities performed and work products produced
  • Associated information needed to reconstruct the estimates, assess their reasonableness, and derive estimates for new work



3. Submit documentation for possible inclusion in the organization’s process asset library.

 

Examples of documentation include the following:
  • Exemplary process descriptions
  • Training modules
  • Exemplary plans
  • Checklists and templates
  • Tool configurations



4. Document lessons learned from the work for inclusion in the organization’s process asset library.

5. Provide process artifacts associated with tailoring and implementing the organization’s set of standard processes in support of the organization’s process monitoring activities.

Refer to the Monitor the Implementation specific practice in the Organizational Process Focus (OPF) (CMMI-SVC) process area for more information about the organization’s activities to understand the extent of deployment of standard processes on new and existing work groups.
