Outsourcing services focused on managing existing infrastructure and applications
rely heavily on monitoring and exceeding service levels - from Symbyo to clients;
and as well as from client's to their end-users. Hence, the focus on quality in
such engagements or activities is on process improvements more than process quality.
While CMM addresses some of the aspects of IT operations, the primary emphasis of
CMM is software or product quality, or the software engineering process. Hence,
Symbyo' approach to quality tracking leverages best-of-breed methodologies and frameworks
such as Six-Sigma (for continuous improvement and high availability), and ITIL (for
incident and problem management).
