For PATH, Invensys Rail appraised at CMMI Level 2
Written by William C. Vantuono, Editor-in-ChiefInvensys Rail says the Software Engineering Institute (SEI) of Carnegie Mellon University has appraised Invensys Rail at a Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) Level 2 for work the company is performing for the Port Authority Trans-Hudson (PATH) transit system. PATH links northern New Jersey and New York City.
CMMI Level 2 is an internationally recognized assessment process developed by SEI that provides a framework of best practices to guide an organization to improve quality, system engineering and project management through the use of reliable and repeatable processes.
Invensys Rail says it is part of a consortium with Siemens Mobility and D. A. Builders, LLC, to design and install a new train control system on the PATH rail system, which has 13 stations and termini in Newark, Hoboken, 33rd Street in midtown Manhattan, and the World Trade Center in downtown Manhattan.
