MA y PPQA en CMMi ACQ V1.2 (4)

MEASUREMENT AND ANALYSIS

El propósito de Measurement and Analysis (MA), perteneciente al Nivel de Madurez 2, es desarrollar y sostener una capacidad de medición que es utilizada para dar soporte a las necesidades de información de la dirección. El staff requerido para implementar una capacidad de medición puede o no requerir de un programa aparte. La capacidad de medición puede estar integrada a los proyectos u otras funciones organizacionales.

La medición y análisis de los componentes de un producto, suministrado por un proveedor, son esenciales para la administración de la calidad y costos del proyecto.

PROCESS AND PRODUCT QUALITY ASSURANCE

El propósito de Process and Producto Quality Assurance (PPQA), perteneciente al Nivel de Madurez 2, es dar soporte a todas las áreas de proceso que suministran prácticas específicas, las cuales permiten evaluar los procesos realizados, productos de trabajo y servicios junto con las descripciones del proceso, estándares y procedimientos. PPQA da soporte en la entrega de productos y servicios de alta calidad.

Las prácticas de PPQA aseguran que los procesos planeados son implementados, mientras que las prácticas de Acquisition Verification (AVER) aseguran que son satisfechos los requerimientos especificados.

El aseguramiento de la calidad comienza en las primeras del proyecto para establecer planes, procesos, estándares y procedimientos que agregarán valor al proyecto y permitirán satisfacer los requerimientos del proyecto y las políticas organizacionales.

PPQA se aplica a evaluaciones de productos, procesos, evaluaciones actividades que no son proyecto y productos de trabajo.

PPQA se relaciona con las siguientes áreas de proceso: SSAD, AM, AVER y ATM. Los objetivos específicos (SG), prácticas especificas (SP) y subprácticas de esta AP son:
