Prioritizing CMMI-DEV Process Areas and Practice to Optimize Software Development Cost: A Case Study of a Financial Technology Company
Abstract
The use of Scrum as agile software development for a financial company experienced the high cost of the project,
i.e., higher than the approved budget. As one of the SPI frameworks, CMMI-DEV can cut costs, improve quality, and
complete projects promptly. Moreover, SPI is able toaddress various organizational problems, but the SPI process is
generally quite extensive. Apart from knowing what processes and practices need improvement, it is also essential to know
each process’s and practice’s priorities. This research prioritizesCMMI-Dev process areas and practicesto improve project
costs on IT projects that use scrum as agile software development.The researcher evaluated each process area’s capability
level and collected data using the SCAMPI C questionnaire. Else, the researcher conducted a ranking using AHP based on
problems and scrum ceremoniesand techniques. Hopefully, the companyis able tosolve a specific problem by improving
scrum ceremonies and techniques. These scrum ceremonies and techniques can be improved by applying prioritized process
areas and practices for each process area.
