Collaboration with Government
Overview
ISRI works with government, industry, academic, and research institutions to assess capabilities and needs, and create large-scale and far-reaching improvement.
In these collaborations, government provides financial and policy support, while ISRI provides expertise from Carnegie Mellon, for major initiatives intended to produce long-term results.
ISRI delivers training and consultation, within plans that track short-term, medium term, and long-term effects.
Programs include faculty development for academic institutions, train-the-trainer with companies, and collaboration with government and high-tech parks for training.
In one case, at the start of ISRI's collaboration with Korea, that country had no resident experts authorized to use the SW-CMM or CMMI models. By 2005, Carnegie Mellon's SEI had authorized several Lead Appraisers, and about 60 Korean software organizations had undertaken assessments or appraisals that were reported to SEI.
