Abstract


Companies are facing a novel economic paradigm which establishes new needs. These needs forces companies to update the way their employees are managed. In this context, P-CMM (People Capability Maturity Model) is capable to drive companies on people management and development. This paper presents Aim-P, a framework that aims to support gradual and incremental deployment of P-CMM in micro, small and medium companies, providing mechanism and guidelines for this. Additionally, in order to observe the use of Aim-P, a case study in a real environment is being conducted.
Keywords: Aim-P, deployment, organizations, software
