If your organization is using defined processes for project and organizational tasks, you might be ready for some measures to objectively see how well they are being implemented. Measurement data can help an organization identify strengths, weaknesses and provide historical data for future planning. In this article, we give example measures for some common processes used within a project.

If you are using CMMI and implementing Generic Practice (GP) 3.2, the ideas listed below are examples of what could be measured to obtain insight into specific process implementations. Measurements are not required for GP 3.2, they are just one option. Tailor these examples to fit your needs or use them as a starting point to generate your own measurements.
