The Software Engineering Institute (SEI) maturity models are now twenty years old. There are many examples of the cost benefits of implementing the best practices in the maturity models. This webinar with Allen Bennett will examine the costs and benefits of several specific best practices. The data for this presentation comes from the experiences of ITT Corporation and what is available in the public domain from the Software Engineering Institute and the Data and Analysis Center for Software (www.thedacs.com).

Benefit models for implementing software inspections, Personal Software Process, Agile Development, and software reuse will be presented. In addition to financial benefits such as increased productivity and reduced rework an examination of secondary benefits such as better staff retention and improved customer satisfaction will be provided.
