Citizant Appraised at CMMI Level 3 for Both Development and Services


Citizant, a provider of Agile (News - Alert) software development, DevOps automation, and business transformation and management services to the U.S. government, was independently appraised at CMMI Maturity Level 3 (ML 3) for both Development and Services.

Citizant's multi-model appraisal, led by David Quinn of MOSAIC Technologies Corp., demonstrated that the company operates both software development and services projects at a high level of quality. Citizant's long history of adhering to best practices of CMMI, ISO 9001, and other quality standards has led to the company's frequent government satisfaction (CPAR) ratings of 5.0 out of 5.0 on complex programs that require both development and services excellence.

"At Citizant, we are passionate about the successful delivery of mission critical services to our government. Now more than ever - Quality matters," said Alba M. Alemán, CEO of Citizant. "Our customers have an amazing opportunity to serve our citizens and do it right, but rarely are they afforded the opportunity to do it over. Citizant is committed to helping our federal agencies do it right, the first time."

"Citizant's most recent appraisal independently validates Citizant's consistent organizational CMMI ML3 management approach across our breadth of programs," said Pamela Schoppert, Director of Quality Programs at Citizant. "It also showcases our ability to tailor processes uniquely based on the size, scope, complexity, and needs of each customer. Citizant sets the bar high with a holistic, multi-model application of accepted industry best practices, fittingthe right quality standard to each part of the company's operation for the benefit for our customers."



Less than 5 percent of all U.S. businesses with a registered CMMI appraisal - and only two dozen small government IT contractors - are appraised at ML 3 or higher for both CMMI-DEV and CMMI-SVC. Citizant remains at the forefront of CMMI development and adoption by supporting the CMMI Next Generation Architecture Working Group. In addition, Citizant plans continued maturity under ISO quality standards in 2017, with an upgraded certification to ISO 9001:2015 and new certification under ISO 20000 for IT service management.
