The CMM framework works within Symbyo improving our ability to build superior quality
software to defined client needs. A solution focus or an end-user focus to quality
differs from software quality, because it takes a life-cycle view to quality. This
shifts the focus to ensuring that the client needs are defined right. CMMI is the
new version that will replace CMM in future
In our model, this extends our quality and process orientation from offshore development
centers to onsite client-site teams and even to clients. Further, the CMMI approach
integrating onsite operations with offshore is currently being rolling out across
the enterprise.

CMMI strengthens many areas beyond CMM. Some of these are:
- Life cycle processes
- Decision making framework within engagement delivery
- Risk management
- Quantitative Project management
- Defect & problem prevention (continuous improvement)
The benefits of the CMMI model coupled with targeting specific improvement areas
will bring improvement in individual project performance and collectively at account
level performance. The CMMI model goes beyond the CMM framework - and the success
of CMMI relies much more heavily on a customer's readiness to be a part of the quality
program - and thereby yielding direct and tangible benefits to clients.
