Maturity model

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Maturity is a measurement of the ability of an organization for continuous improvement in a particular discipline (as defined in O-ISM3[dubious – discuss]).[1] The higher the maturity, the higher will be the chances that incidents or errors will lead to improvements either in the quality or in the use of the resources of the discipline as implemented by the organization.

Most maturity models assess qualitatively people/culture, processes/structures, and objects/technology.[2]

Two approaches for implementing maturity models exist. With a top-down approach, such as proposed by Becker et al.,[3] a fixed number of maturity stages or levels is specified first and further corroborated with characteristics (typically in form of specific assessment items) that support the initial assumptions about how maturity evolves. When using a bottom-up approach, such as suggested by Lahrmann et al.,[4] distinct characteristics or assessment items are determined first and clustered in a second step into maturity levels to induce a more general view of the different steps of maturity evolution. Topics that are covered in maturity models include:

Analytics[]

Cybersecurity[]

Enterprise architecture[]

Human resources[]

Information security management[]

O-ISM3[5]

Information technology[]

  • (capability model focused on operational resilience, i.e., cybersecurity, service continuity, IT operations)
  • Capability Maturity Model (CMM, focusing on software development)
  • Open Source Maturity Model (for open-source software development)
  • Service Integration Maturity Model (for SOA)
  • Modeling Maturity Levels (for software specification)
  • Richardson Maturity Model (for HTTP-based web services)
  • ISO/IEC 15504 (for Process Maturity)
  • [6] (for Master Data Management)

Knowledge management[]

  • The Knowledge Navigator Model[7] [8]

Learning[]

  • (EMM)

Marketing[]

PLM[]

Project management[]

  • OPM3 (Organisational Project Management Maturity Model)
  • P3M3 (Portfolio, Programme and Project Management Maturity Model)

The maturity model concept has been applied to city planning practices, such as planning to encourage participation in cycling.[9]
