It is time once again to summarize data related to Class-A appraisals for the People CMM®.

Here is the updated data with the People CMM® SCAMPI^SM-A published results of 2015 added:

Data for 2010 to 2015 has been picked up from the Published Appraisal Results Site maintained by the CMMI Institute. Earlier data has been picked up from multiple sources as given in the table. Some appraisals may be missing from the data, if the appraised entity did not wish to publish the results (for whatever reasons).

Further analysis of the past 28 appraisals (of the last 3 years) listed in the Published Appraisal Results Site (with Filter People CMM® v2.0)  shows the following:

• 22 of the 28 appraisals in the period 2012-2014 were led by three LAs-Lead Appraisers (Rajesh Naik, K Kothandaraman and D Sankararaman).
• Seven different LAs did the 28 People CMM® appraisals (of the last 3 years).
• There are 9 authorized LAs for the model on 27-Jan-2016 (the number of LAs was 11 in Jan 2015). For a list of People CMM® LAs go to the Partner Directory; select “CMMI Institute Authorized SCAMPI with People CMM Lead Appraiser” option –> you will get the list of LAs for People CMM®.
• People CMM® organizations of the last 3 years belong to the IT/ ITes, finance, engineering, telecom, manufacturing domains.
• Accenture – Tech units across the globe has the highest number of entries in the list of the last 3 years.

The reasons for the low number of appraisals for People CMM® have been discussed in the post Adoption of People CMM® -03: Why is it Low?  – I believe the same reasons continue to apply even today.

Hope we have a greater adoption of the model and more number of reported appraisals in 2016 and beyond.
