CMMI V2.0, the next version of the CMMI model, is apparently ready for release.
We are right now in March of 2018, CMMI V2.0 is tentatively slated for release some time later this month.
CMMI V2.0 is structurally different as compared to CMMI v1.3, the current version that will soon become older!
CMMI V2.0 will have broad categories like doing, managing, enabling and improving.
This very well corresponds with the characteristics any world class organization should possess.
Any organization needs to focus on essentially four sets of activities.
Many of the business excellence frameworks focus on these very well.

Do Part
Manage The Do Part
Manage The Environment Around The Do and The Manage Part
This includes improving the way the above three are being performed in the order of priority descending down from top to bottom.
This includes the cycle of sell-develop-deliver or develop-sell-deliver and refers to performing those core activities that impact the "revenues from operations" like engineering, manufacturing, design and development, service provisioning etc.
This also includes acquiring customers and delivering to them.
Manage The Do Part
This includes the activities to manage the core activities and refers to activities such as estimating scope of work, schedule, resources required and cost.
This also includes kicking off, planning, monitoring & controlling the various logical threads of work to their closure.
Manage The Environment Around The Do and The Manage Part
This includes everything else the organization does apart from core activities and their management and includes those activities that would eventually constitute expenses on the profit & loss statement.
This also includes:
- leadership & strategy
- engagement with customers and suppliers
- hiring, managing and motivating the staff
- administrative activities like ensuring physical and IT/network infrastructure support,
- compliance to rules and regulations that apply beyond the core activities and their management
- managing communications to and dependencies with various stakeholders across the board.
Improve the Above Part
This includes improving the way the above three are being performed in the order of priority descending down from top to bottom.
One interesting question that would come up at this point.
How do the broad categories in CMMI V2.0 map against the four sets of activities above?
So here it goes:
Doing in CMMI V2.0
"Do Part" covers CMMI practises pertaining to "Doing" in totality.
Managing in CMMI V2.0
"Manage The Do Part" covers CMMI practises pertaining to "Managing" in totality
Enabling in CMMI V2.0
"Manage The Do Part" covers CMMI practises pertaining to "Enabling" in totality.
Enabling in CMMI is focused on core activities and their management.
However, "Manage The Environment Around The Do and The Manage Part" covers the whole gamut beyond core activities and their management.
So that way this is a miss. But that would be so since in CMMI the core activities and their management continue to be the focus.
"Manage The Environment Around The Do and The Manage Part" is important from an overall business excellence perspective.

"Improving in CMMI V2.0"
"Improve the Above Part" covers CMMI practises pertaining to "Improving" in totality.
Improving in CMMI is focused on core activities and their management.
However, "Improving the Above Part" covers the whole gamut beyond core activities and their management.
