Abstract

The paper analyses potential impacts of the Kanban Maturity Model (KMM) on the current Software Process Improvement (SPI) Approaches as represented in the SPI Manifesto. Additionally, the paper presents and compares ISO/IEC 33014 (2013), the PEMM Model, ImprovAbility Model and Test Process Improvement (TPI) with KMM. It also contains a short comparison between the agile extension of TestSPICE and the KMM. In the last section the paper explores where the SPI community can benefit from ideas of the KMM.
