Stage-Gate® Process
Conceptual and operational roadmap for moving a new-product project from idea to launch.The Stage-Gate® process is divided into a series of Stages (activities) and Gates (decision points).
Stages consist of a set of cross-functional, parallel activities within a project. In order to proceed from one stage to the next, these activities must be successfully completed and confirmed by passing a gate.Gates are passed during gate review meetings
Decision is made to either continue or stop a project based on whether a set of predefined Gate criteria have been metGates serve as quality control checkpointsGates decide the path forward for a project, including resource commitmentsGate decisions are based on
the set of deliverables from the preceding stagea set of criteria/questions/metrics used to evaluate the project and its deliverables
Gate decisions:Continue to the next stage“Kill” the projectHold or “freeze” the projectRecycle the project (re-scope and restart)

Stage-Gate® Process
Conceptual and operational roadmap for moving a new-product project from idea to launch.
Provides a framework for better management of product development projects
Provides correct and relevant information for business decisions.
Ensures that the line organization is actively involved in the project and that the project status is made visible for all project stakeholders.
Based on the experiences, suggestions and observations of a large number of managers and firms in over 60 cases as observed by Robert Cooper.

Benefits of the Stage-Gate® Process
Accelerates speed-to-market
Increases likelihood of product success
Introduces discipline into an ordinarily chaotic process
Reduces re-work and other forms of waste
Improves focus via gates where poor projects are killed
Fosters promotion of innovative ideas
Achieves efficient and effective allocation of scarce resources
Ensures a complete process – no critical steps are omitted

CMMI
“Consists of best practices that address development and maintenance activities that cover the product lifecycle from conception through delivery and maintenance.”
Helps “organizations improve their development and maintenance processes for both products and services.”
CMMI can help:set process improvement goals and priorities
provide guidance for quality processes
provide a yardstick for appraising current practices
Provide a framework for benchmarking among and across organizations

Benefits of CMMI
Increases the likelihood of meeting cost, schedule, and performance goals
Enhances collaboration with external stakeholders
Helps organizations define common, integrated processes for system development
Encourages proactive management techniques
Establishes disciplined, repeatable processes rather than chaotic, ad-hoc product development cycles

How CMMI and Stage-Gate® Complement Each Other
CMMI provides more detail on best practices – especially within the Process Management and Support process area categories
Stage-Gate models tend to be checklist based –focused on ensuring that criteria have been met
CMMI provides guidance on specific practices that help organizations successfully achieve the criteria
