3⟩ Should we try to get a maturity level or capability levels?

Unless you are trying to get a level to qualify for a contract that specifies what they require, the choice is entirely up to you. There are a few issues that may influence your decision.

First, when you “get a level” you are in reality conducting a CMMI appraisal (called a SCAMPI A appraisal). Such an appraisal requires selecting a CMMI model and the scope of the organization to be appraised. In addition, you must determine what results you want from the appraisal.

Capability levels apply to your organization’s process improvement achievement in individual process areas. The four capability levels are numbered 0 through 3. For example, your appraisal results may show that the part of the organization you appraised is capability level 3 for Configuration Management, but capability level 2 for Decision Analysis and Resolution.

Maturity levels apply to your organization’s process improvement achievement in multiple process areas. These levels are a means of improving the processes corresponding to a given set of process areas (i.e., maturity level). The five maturity levels are numbered 1 through 5. The maturity level applies to the scope of the organization that was appraised (e.g., three projects, a department, a division)

8⟩ Explain What are Maturity Levels in Staged Representation?

The Staged Representation is one of the approaches used in Software CMM. This approach utilizes the predefined sets of process areas for defining an improvement path for an enterprise and the improvement path is described by a model component called a Maturity Level.

CMMI Staged Representation provides a proven sequence of improvements, each of which serves as a foundation for the next. The comparisons across enterprises by using the maturity levels are permitted. The staged representation provides migration from SW-CMM to CMMI. It provides a rating system which summarizes the results of appraisal. The Staged Representation provides a well pre-defined roadmap the improvement of organizations which are based on proven grouping and ordering of processes.
