Caritor achieves Maturity Level 5 of CMMi Version 1.2
Amongst the first few companies globally to be appraised for all of its offshore development centers
Bangalore, January 17th, 2007: Caritor, a global provider of IT Services, has announced that all of its offshore development centers have been appraised at Maturity Level 5 of the latest version 1.2 of Capability Maturity Model Integrated (CMMI). With this, Caritor has become one of the very few companies globally to achieve this highest level of CMMI capability. A SEI Authorized High Maturity Lead Appraiser from KPMG conducted this appraisal for Caritor between December 26, 2006 and January 10, 2007.
"Caritor\'s quality focus has been one of its greatest strengths. Caritor\'s documented Business Management System(BMS) provides a robust platform to quantitatively manage its business operations to help deliver sustained customer value. Caritor has been able to leverage its Six Sigma program to bring about continuous process improvements for operational efficiency. The pursuit of such an integrated approach towards quality has enabled Caritor to transition from Level 5 of CMMI v 1.1 to Level 5 of CMMI v 1.2 successfully in such a short time.", said Mr. K.K. Raman of KPMG who conducted the appraisal for Caritor
Caritor has had an impressive track record for its quality programs right from 1999 when it received its first ISO 9001 certification. Within a short span of two to five years, Caritor achieved various quality milestones including CMM Level 5, ISO 9001:2000, PCMM Level 5 and CMMI Level 5 assessments. It is this relentless approach towards achieving the highest levels in quality standards that Caritor is now assessed at Level 5 of version 1.2 of the CMMI standard.
"Caritor is amongst the first few companies in the world to get assessed against this new standard. Considering that the 1.2 version of CMMI and SCAMPI were released as recently as August 2006, this is a proud moment of achievement for Caritor. This appraisal is testimony to our continued commitment towards aligning our processes to enhance customer value", says Mr. Srikanth Rao, Executive Vice President, Caritor.
The much acclaimed CMMi model of the Software Engineering Institute (SEI), Carnegie Mellon, measures an organization's ability to manage and enhance its software delivery processes. The latest versions, CMMI 1.2 and SCAMPI 1.2 (Standard CMMI Appraisal Methodology for Process Improvement) were released in August 2006.
