Abstract

Nowadays organizations aim to enhance software products development and maintenance satisfying then, user needs through methodology and work framework such as: Scrum and CMMI-DEV. Particularly, higher education institutions face the challenge of keeping a robust, flexible and safe IT infrastructure that provides support to the institution’s processes continuous improvement. For that matter, the objective of this study is based on the Design Science Research (DSR) approach, answering the following: Does the integration of the CMMI-DEV model, version 1.3 with SCRUM work frame enhance project management quality in the software development process as well as product quality? The method used in answering this question consisted of the design and implementation of a Framework, integrating CMMI-DEV + Scrum in a university academic environment evaluated by ISO/IEC 25010, ISO/IEC 25022 e ISO/IEC 25023 quality standards. Proposed electrical devices, instruments and Framework templates are publicly available online at Zenodo repository. Results show a 14.6% project management improvement rate and 2.16% increase in software product quality use. To sum up, the integration of CMMI-DEV with SCRUM improved both, quality development process and software product.
