SEI
The Software Engineering Institute (SEI) was established in 1984 by Congress as a
federally funded research and development center with a broad charter to address the
transition of software engineering technology.
The SEI is funded by the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) through a contract
with the Air Force Materiel Command/Electronic Systems Center, and through additional
contracts with other sponsors, clients, and partners.
As an integral component of the Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) community and as an
ARPA-funded organization, the SEI has access to leading edge technology and supports the
commitment of ARPA to satisfying the needs of the Department of Defense (DoD) and the
commitment of CMU to transferring improved technology to the community at large.
The SEI may be best known for providing the Capability Maturity Model (CMM) for
software, that organizations use as a basis for appraisal and subsequent improvement.
Find out everything they have to offer by visiting the SEI web site.
