What is the goal of the Implementation Infrastructure Practice Area?

The goal of the Implementation Infrastructure Practice Area is fundamentally about ensuring that the processes that organizations routinely employ are consistently improved over time. This practice area focuses on the establishment and refinement of an effective infrastructure that supports the implementation of key technical and management processes.

Improvement in habitually used processes is crucial for enhancing overall efficiency and effectiveness, thus leading to more predictable and quality outcomes in an organization. The practice area emphasizes sustaining these improvements through practices such as continuous monitoring and feedback mechanisms, which contribute to a culture of ongoing enhancement.

This approach aligns with the overarching goals of the Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) framework, which seeks to foster development and organizational maturity. By prioritizing the improvement of frequently used processes, organizations can better respond to changes, innovate, and ultimately achieve higher levels of performance. This is in line with CMMI's focus on process management and organizational capability, making it a key element of the implementation strategy.
