Capability maturity for EIT refers to its ability to reliably perform. Maturity is a measured by an organization’s readiness and capability expressed through its people, processes, data and technologies and the consistent measurement practices that are in place. A typical description of organizational maturity was developed by Stanford’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory:

Level 1

Level 2

Level 3

Level 4
Predictable |
Level 5
Optimizing |
|---|
| People |
- Success depends on individual heroics.
- “Fire fighting is a way of life.”
- Relationships between disciplines are uncoordinated, perhaps even adversarial.
|
- Success depends on individuals and management system supports.
- Commitments are understood and managed.
- People are trained.
|
- Project groups work together, perhaps as an integrated product team.
- Training is planned and provided according to roles.
|
- A strong sense of teamwork exists within each project.
|
- A strong sense of teamwork exists across the organization.
Everyone is involved in process improvement.
|
| Process |
- Few stable processes exist or are used.
|
- Documented and stable estimating, planning, and commitment processes are at the project level.
|
- Integrated management and engineering processes are used across the organization.
|
- Processes are quantitatively understood and stabilized.
|
- Processes are continuously and systematically improved.
|
| Technology |
- The introduction of new technology is risky.
|
- Technology supports established, stable activities.
|
- New technologies are evaluated on a qualitative basis.
|
- New technologies are evaluated on a quantitative basis.
|
- New technologies are proactively pursued and deployed.
|
| Measurement |
- Data collection and analysis are ad hoc
|
- Planning and management data is used by individual projects.
|
- Data is collected and used in all defined processes.
- Data is systematically shared across projects.
|
- Data definition and collection are standardized across the organization
- Data is used to understand the process qualitatively and stabilize it.
|
- Data is used to evaluate and select process improvements.
