This one-day course teaches managers and practitioners how to identify and define indicators ( i.e., graphical displays) and measures that directly support an organization’s business, process improvement, and project goals. Using lectures and exercises, participants learn how to determine success, progress, and analysis indicators that show traceability from an organization’s high-level business goals right down to the precise data collected, ensuring relevance and traceability from goals to data. Participants also learn how to define measures and indicators that aligned with the organization’s business processes and support the measurement requirements of the Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) Measurement and Analysis process area. The measurement program in the organization will support their current processes, and provide a solid foundation to move to CMMI high maturity levels.
