PRAGMA SYSTEMS CORPORATION

pragma Systems was founded in 1990 as a software process improvement and assessment business and is a privately held corporation. pragma Systems was one of the first organizations awarded an assessor's license by the Software Engineering Institute to appraise the maturity of an organization's processes against the newly created Software Capability Maturity Model (SW-CMM)... It soon became apparent that the traditional approach to achieving SW-CMM compliance by forming action teams that produced files -- paper files, electronic files, Word tables, Excel charts, etc. -- took much too long and was much too expensive and did not track with work later as it was performed. The traditional approach involved hand crafting processes, and provided no integration between the processes and projects' day-to-day work. To address the inadequacies of the traditional approach, pragma Systems began the development of processMax, the first intranet, web-based solution that integrated SW-CMM compliant..
