If you're business is located in Germany I would say there is more expertise in SPICE there - but most other places CMMI seems to dominate, especially here in the US.<br /><br />And when it comes to contract requirements, SPICE has some presence in the German and Italian auto companies, but not much else here in the US.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4495426512682348971.post-42482214821002364882013-07-01T01:49:24.099-05:002013-07-01T01:49:24.099-05:00So can anyone please tell me...as i have started m...So can anyone please tell me...as i have started my new IT firm..then for which should I opt..CMMI or SPICE??Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4495426512682348971.post-68119060702732105382011-12-16T09:25:40.227-05:002011-12-16T09:25:40.227-05:00Ansaria,

The CMMI dominates the market. SPICE lives primarily in the automotive industry (so called "A-SPICE"). It appears to be something that is limited to the German manufacturers here in the US.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4495426512682348971.post-63711300298036882472011-12-16T08:32:54.863-05:002011-12-16T08:32:54.863-05:00i was trying to find some companies that have ISO ...i was trying to find some companies that have ISO 15504/SPICE certification, but i didnt see any.

Some here in the US have said it's a German attempt at codifying CMMI behaviors. I'm no expert at this, but as you can see from jgarzas comment above, some people are quite passionate about it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4495426512682348971.post-54158685648234213572011-10-07T06:30:29.672-05:002011-10-07T06:30:29.672-05:00Hey there Jeff!

SPICE has a few adopters here in the US, but not many. By the way, the original question, which I summarized, referred to ISO9001 - which is not a process model nor does it have levels.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4495426512682348971.post-55011662457182496922009-01-22T01:23:00.000-05:002009-01-22T01:23:00.000-05:00But... do you know ISO 15504?
