On June 27, 2009, DVN China was successfully CMMI-L3 accredited, demonstrating that DVN Group has already ranked among the world’s top companies in the software industry in terms of integrated management, personnel quality, product and service quality.
CMMI, also known as capability maturity model integration, is an international authoritative standard introduced by the SEI of Carnegie Mellon University. Intended for measuring the capability maturity and project management skills of software companies, it covers a broad range of activities including software development, integration, project management, outsourcing and procurement, and project support and maintenance, involving the whole life cycle from concept introduction to delivery to maintenance. It has been universally recognized as a permit for enterprises to get access to the international market.
As a professional provider of software and service of cable TV and interactive TV platform, DVN China is committed to providing cable TV operators with innovative systems and service through its profound expertise, extensive industrial experience and brand-new concept. In the course of its sustainable development, the company attaches great importance to the process management of software development and service and consistently improves its research and development as well as management system through continual process improvement.
In March 2008, DVN China officially introduced the certification system into its quality management system. The company also entered into a CMMI-L3 consultation and certification agreement with Measures Technology (Beijing) Co., Ltd., officially launching the CMMI-L3 certification and appraisal project.
Through CMMI model study, the establishment of the quality management system, pilot operation of the project, project promotion and continual improvement, periodic operation inspection and appraisal, and the conclusion of formal appraisal over the last year and a half, DVN China successfully attained its goal for process improvement: the establishment of a set of practical, simple and efficient project management process system, project development process system, project support process system, and process improvement system, the development of a team of backbone personnel in project management, quality management and process improvement, and the improvement and promotion of its ability to software research and development as well as project management.
Undoubtedly, the successful implementation of this certification appraisal has played an important role in accelerating and promoting the industrialization and market-oriented development of more of its products and projects, providing additional guarantee for the company to remain invincible in the fierce competition of the specialized software market. Meanwhile, as its leaders point out, DVN China will take this as a new starting point, making more efforts in software research and development and management and conducting deeper and continual software process improvement, so as to better improve product quality and customer satisfaction and reach higher.
