This research is being conducted in order to develop a model that could predict impact of CMMI Process Improvement on Performance Classes- Productivity Parameters such as (Effort, Cost, Schedule and Productivity) and to give mechanism/framework for generating reports on the perceived performance benefits of Software Performance classes. To assist software managers in performing cost benefits analysis for CMMI initiatives.

The aim of this study is to develop a tool which could be used to present an actual picture of Software Process Improvement benefits in front of the software development companies. However, there are few tools available to assist in making predictions, they are too expensive and could not cover dataset that reflect the cultural behavior of organizations for software development in developing countries. In extension to our previously done research reported elsewhere for Pakistani software development organizations which has quantified benefits of SDPI (Software Development Process Improvement), this research has used sixty-two datasets from three different software development organizations against the set of metrics used in COCOMO-II (Constructive Cost Model 2000). It derived a verifiable equation for calculating ISF (Ideal Scale Factor) and tuned the COCOMO-II model to bring prediction capability for SDPI (benefit measurement classes) such as ESCP (Effort, Schedule, Cost, and Productivity). This research has contributed towards software industry by giving a reliable and low-cost mechanism for generating prediction models with high prediction accuracy. Hopefully, this study will help software organizations to use this tool not only to predict ESCP but also to predict an exact impact of SDPI.

Problem The studies from developing countries show that the organizations are unable to get the desired SPI benefits during early adaptation due to lack of benchmarking initiatives. These initiative needed bridging of the gap between major software engineering fields such as project performance, productivity, and SPI measurement metrics like effort, schedule, cost, productivity, quality, and customer satisfaction. Method This research quantifies SPI benefits by bridging the existing gaps and identifying a commonly defined set of 44 significant base metrics related to ESCPQC and applies a conceptual framework over the collected data of 62 projects from three leading soft...
