OnTheSystem makes preparing for CMMI® appraisals easier, faster, lower cost and focused on maximizing your ROI.

OnTheSystem for CMMI® is an online process management framework that provides your organization with an easier and faster way to deploy CMMI and prepare for appraisals. At the heart of OnTheSystem is an Integrated Process Asset Library (i-PAL) that creates a CMMI-quality culture that promotes consistency and excellence in every step of your software development process.

Easier Deployment:

OnTheSystem shortens your CMMI implementation timeline. It does this by providing you with a ready-to-use CMMI compliant process-management framework with built-in templates and procedures. Simply turn it on, customize OnTheSystem with your organizational structure and you are ready to document roles, share knowledge, organize artifacts and engage your employees in a CMMI compliant continuous improvement cycle.

Faster Appraisals:

OnTheSystem guides your employees through a step-by-step CMMI project plan. Each step relates to a CMMI process role and includes procedures, templates and quality objectives. As your employees perform each step/role they are prompted to gather the required supporting artifact(s) which are attached for internal or outside appraisal.

Lower Cost:

OnTheSystem saves you a lot of money:

  • Shorter deployment timeline--for example OnTheSystem can help your firm go from Level 1 to Level 3 in one quick step
  •  Reduced employee effort creating a CMMI process definitions, procedures, artifact templates, etc
  • Eliminating the time and cost for Class B and Class C Appraisals
  • Dramatically reduced effort preparing for Class A Appraisals--for example, OnTheSystem can help save your organization hundreds of hours of effort organizing project artifacts
  •  Actually using CMMI to adopt lean, agile, efficient and low cost operating processes Smile   

Rapid ROI:

OnTheSystem help you achieve higher level CMMI benefits earlier in your deployment. For example "innovation" and "continuous improvement" -- both of which are high ROI benefits associated with CMMI levels 4 and 5 -- are pursued as a simple byproduct of using OnTheSystem.

Benefit

Integrated Process Asset Library (i-PAL) CMMI is a non-prescriptive approach that requires you to create quality related processes, procedures and systems. As a result, it can take years to advance through the CMMI maturity levels. OnTheSystem dramatically shortens your CMMI timeline by providing you with a ready-made quality framework.
Appraisal Artifact Management Your organization spends hundreds of hours preparing for CMMI appraisals. OnTheSystem automatically organizes CMMI required source documents for easy access and review. This saves you the time, effort and stress of searching for artifacts prior to an appraisal.
Knowledge Sharing Employees are constantly "spinning their wheels" re-creating documents and methodology that have already been developed by other employees. OnTheSystem includes tools like a knowledge-base, employee-blog and communication system that provide your employees with a systematic way to document and improve best-practices.
Asynchronous Collaboration Studies report that every interruption costs about 20-minutes of lost productivity. OnTheSystem is designed to minimize the need for emails, meetings and interruptions. It features multiple asynchronous collaboration tools to manage CMMI projects, resolve issues, improve processes, communicate and share information.
Built-in Templates & Procedures It is costly and time-consuming to create required documents and procedures for all 300+ CMMI Roles. OnTheSystem for CMMI comes with customizable templates and procedures that end the guesswork of creating infrastructure and IP (intellectual property) from scratch.  The result is an easier, faster and less stressful CMMI implementation.
Step-by-step Compliance Guides Employees have a difficult time remembering all the steps and requirements of managing a CMMI project. OnTheSystem for CMMI includes simple step-by-step compliance guides that explain the importance of every step in your CMMI project. The guides support an "active-learning" (learning by doing) approach that speed the development of your organization's CMMI quality culture.
Continuous Process Improvement You don't want to wait until Level 5 to benefit from continual process improvement. OnTheSystem automatically creates an employee powered continual improvement feedback loop for every CMMI process. This means you benefit from process improvement from the start.
Optimum Consultant Utilization
You would like to use your consulting budget more effectively by having fewer site-visits and more online feedback.
OnTheSystem's online CMMI framework makes it easy for your consultant(s) to provide your employees with frequent, remote, real-time feedback on their current CMMI project tasks. These online process-checks allow employees to learn CMMI as they go. It also helps ensure every CMMI project is always "appraisal ready."
