Sometimes, a team of engineers can throw a pile of slush at a wall, take whatever sticks, and create a quality product. For anyone who prefers not to rely on this method, this book provides an introduction to an alternative: CMMI. As the title emphasizes, this is a practical guide; instead of using a highly theoretical approach, Kasse discusses specific organizational activities and roles for management and practitioners based on CMMI. The book is pitched mainly at organizations that already are involved with CMM or CMMI, or already know that they want to embrace CMMI, so novices beware: this is some dense reading material.
