  About the SEI
The SEI advances software engineering and related disciplines to ensure the development and operation of systems with predictable and improved cost, schedule, and quality.
The SEI creates and identifies emerging or underused solutions to significant and pervasive software engineering problems and develops these solutions so that they can be applied by software developers and acquirers to improve their software engineering practices.
The SEI works through the global community of software engineers to amplify the impact of the new and improved practices by encouraging and supporting their widespread adoption.
