| | ISO/IEC 15504 |
 | | The SEI has reported on joint appraisal efforts with the ISO 15504 editor to confirm the usability of CMMI appraisal documentation in the 15504 framework. |
 | | It was inspired by the Software CMM and ISO 9001, but the purpose of 15504 is to harmonize a number of different models (including the Software CMM, CMMI, ISO 9001, ISO 12207, Trillium, Software Technology Diagnostic, and Bootstrap) and assessment methods (including CBA IPI, SCE 3.0, Bootstrap, and SCAMPI). |
 | | In contrast, ISO 9001 is an established set of requirements for quality management systems. |
