Understanding and Applying the Capability Maturity Model to Advance TSMO Programs

The Understanding and Applying the Capability Maturity Model (CMM) to Advance Transportation Systems Management and Operations (TSMO) Programs provides TSMO champions with enough knowledge about the CMM to be able to understand how the CMM could support TSMO programs and how to conduct a self-assessment of their own organization and partner organization’s capabilities to deliver TSMO. This includes such tasks as identifying the current levels of capability regarding key processes, organization, staff, and collaboration issues that may assist the state/region in defining the priorities among an array of possible actions to improve TSMO efforts. The purpose of the self-assessment is to develop a consensus evaluation of the state of play and promising next steps in advancing the effectiveness of the statewide TSMO efforts.
