ITPEC FE Morning October 2021 — Question 50 of 80

CMMI Maturity Levels — the highest level is Optimizing (Level 5).

CMMI defines 5 maturity levels:

  • Level 1 — Initial: ad hoc, chaotic processes
  • Level 2 — Managed: basic project management in place
  • Level 3 — Defined: standardized processes across the organization
  • Level 4 — Quantitatively Managed: processes measured with metrics
  • Level 5 — Optimizing: continuous improvement based on data

Why not others:
- (a) Auditable — not a CMMI level

- (b) Custom — not a CMMI level

- (d) Quantitatively Managed — Level 4, not the highest

Key rule: CMMI levels in order: Initial → Managed → Defined → Quantitatively Managed → Optimizing (highest).
