The Capability Maturity Model (CMM) was developed by the Software Engineering Institute at Carnegie-Mellon University to describe a framework of five stages of evolution or levels of capability or process maturity. The CMM describes an evolutionary improvement path from an ad-hoc‚ immature process to a mature‚ disciplined process. This model applies to new product development as well as software development. While the CMM provides a model for process maturity‚ the Product Development Best Practices

Object Oriented Language‚ middleware have been introduced‚ the Capability Maturity Model is the most widely used model in the software organizations. A software organization can be run in either as an Immature software organization where the immediate crises are solved and the employees does not meet estimated budget and schedule. In this kind of organization the product functionality and quality will be compromised as there is no process improvement techniques used for the long run of the organization
