Process Maturity
Chic ago
• Process Maturity provides a methodology to assess the
ability of our processes to provide optimized
performance to the business
• More mature process capabilities will drive enhanced
business results
• Process Maturity provides the framework to establish our
process structure and guides development of a process
roadmap
• The process maturity framework reviewed here is based
on the Process Enterprise Maturity Model (PEMM)
developed by Michael Hammer and summarized in The
Process Audit, Harvard Business Review, April 2007

Process and Enterprise
Maturity Model
Chic ago
Process Maturity Models – A tool to help organizations
plan and manage their transitions to process. Consists of:
 a framework for assessing the maturity of any
particular business process and
 another for assessing the maturity of an enterprise as
a whole.
PEMM – a framework that helps executives comprehend, plan and
assess process-based transformation efforts. Companies need to
ensure that their business processes become more mature – that they
are capable of delivering higher performance over time. Companies
must deliver process enablers which pertain to individual processes and
enterprise capabilities which apply to the entire organization.

Process Maturity
Chic ago
Process Maturity can be viewed on twodimensions:
• Process Enablers – maturity of our individual processes to drive
process transformation within our business areas
• Enterprise Capabilities – foundational requirements across the
enterprise to enable successful process transformation within our
processes

Prerequisites of Process
Chic ago
• Effective process organizations require capabilities within the
enterprise to sustain their efforts
• These are the things that as an enterprise need to be in place to
sustain process transformation and are the responsibility of the
central Process Competency Center driven through the Process
Owners
• The Enterprise Capabilities are:
– Leadership
to authorize and enable the effort
– Culture
a value system receptive to what process entails
– Expertise
capability to plan and execute process transformation
– Governance
a system to manage the effort and ensure it doesn’t fall apart

Process Enablers

• Process enablers are required for each process for
sustained performance
• These are the things that each process team needs to
focus on for their respective process
– Design
specification of how the work is performed
– Metrics
used to assess and assure performance
– Owner
required to manage E2E view of the process
– Performers
knowledgeable users to ensure execution
– Infrastructure
required supporting mechanisms

Process Enablers
Chic ago
• Determine how well a process is able to function over time. They encompass
• the comprehensiveness of a process’s design
• the abilities of the people who operate the process
• the appointment of top-level process owner to oversee the process’s
implementation and performance
• the match between the organization’s information and management systems
• the process’s needs and the quality of metrics that the company uses to measure
process performance.
• Enabler’s strength determines how mature a process is
• P-1 process is reliable, predictable
• P-2 process delivers superior results because the company has designed &
implemented it from one end of the organization to another
• P-3 process delivers optimal performance because executives can integrate it with
other internal processes to maximize company’s performance
• P-4 process is best in class extending back to suppliers and forward to customers

Not the CMM…
Level 1: Initial
The software process is ad hoc, and occasionally even chaotic. Few processes are defined, and
success depends on individual effort and heroics. Frequent late nights and hollow, sunken eyes
are common. Programmers at each others' throats. Managers mostly very angry.
Level 2: Repeatable
Should a similar project be run, it would probably be just as chaotic. Team leaders have slim
control over the programmers. Project manager has installed MS Project, and printed out
reams upon reams of Gantt charts which have already started to block doorways and
commonly used pathways, e.g. from "zoo" area to kitchen. More late nights than not.
Programmers generally civil to each other, but often murmur discontentedly behind each
others' backs. Managers have bouts of rage during progress update meetings.
Level 3: Defined
The software process is documented, standardized, and integrated into a standard process for
the organization. Managers express keenness to use the process for any new projects, as soon
as all the current projects are finished. Programmers spend more time filling out forms than
writing software.
Level 4: Managed
Accurate metrics are collected for each project, as and when it fails. Detailed "post-mortems"
explain why the organization's standard process was not used yet again. Programmers spend
large proportion of day updating CV and hanging around the popular job sites.
Level 5: Optimizing
A miracle worker was passing by one night. Programmers angry because most of the jobs out
there are made-up.
