New York, Sept 12: Computer Sciences Corporation's centre in Noida has attained the Software Engineering Institute's capability maturity model (CMM) Level 5 rating, the company said today. The Noida centre is the second CSC facility in India to earn the highest possible CMM rating from the SEI, a research and development centre chartered to improve software engineering practices.
In May, CSC announced that its centre in Indore had attained a CMM Level 5 rating.
The CMM ratings, which are awarded after exhaustive independent evaluation involving analysis and review of software development capabilities, processes and products, help buyers determine reliable and low-risk suppliers of software products and services. Fewer than 100 companies in the world have earned a CMM Level 5 rating. The operation in Noida (Uttar Pradesh) is the sixth CSC facility to attain this designation.
CSC's centre in Noida is part of a network of cost-efficient CSC centres in countries like India, South Africa, Canada, Ireland, Malaysia and Australia.
Augmented by CSC's third-party alliances in Russia, Belarus, Bulgaria, India, Canada and Mexico, these locations provide robust, round-the-clock operations that deliver applications management, information technology outsourcing and business process outsourcing services to CSC's clients in other regions such as the United States and western Europe. "Achieving CMM Level 5 designations at Noida and Indore complements our other quality initiatives such as six sigma, a discipline that focuses on improving performance by identifying, measuring and eliminating defects," said Jim Cook, president of CSC's financial services group.
"Providing high quality products and services is a commitment of CSC's operations in India and around the world," Cook added. Bureau Report
