IBS Software, a provider of new generation IT solutions to the global travel, transportation and logistics industry, has been re-appraised at Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) Level 5, a global benchmark in quality standards.

This was announced by the Software Engineering Institute (SEI) at Carnegie Mellon University. The appraisal was conducted by KPMG and included stringent reviews of the processes followed by IBS for software development and service delivery.

With this appraisal, IBS retains its membership in an elite group of around 200 organisations across the globe to achieve this level, the highest an organisation can attain in the CMMI framework. IBS had been appraised at Level 5 against earlier versions of the CMMI model in 2002 and 2006.

PROCESS IMPROVEMENT

CMMI is a process improvement model used to assess the maturity of a company's software development processes and practices.

Level 5 indicates the highest level of process maturity and reflects an organisation's capability to evolve and implement best practices in the development of products and services through innovative process and technological enhancements.

According to Mr Arun Hrishikesan, Chief Technology Officer, IBS Group, the company's solutions manage mission critical operations of some of the largest airlines, airports, oil and gas companies and cruise liners. Hence it is vital to ensure stringent application of quality processes at all times.
