Since May 2010 Omniprove and CPIS have worked in close association, under the SEI partnership of CPIS, to train and support clients applying the well-established principles of CMMI to help them achieve their appraisal requirements and business goals. Over the last few years our two partner companies have worked together on the development and application of TickITplus, led by Dave Wynn of Omniprove, principle author of TickITplus. With this strong bond, common background and shared vision, Omniprove and CPIS are in the unique position of being able to train, advise, coach and, if necessary, appraise organisations in either CMMI, TickITplus or both, potentially postponing or removing the need to choose between the two approaches. For clients who have chosen alternative models or standards to guide their quality aspirations, our partnership has experience of most other approaches, models and standards in use today.
