This paper describes a prescribed methodology for tailoring Command Media derived from the Carnegie Mellon® 1 University's Software Engineering Institute's Capability Maturity Model® Integration for a company's business areas. The paper illustrates a case study for a specific Harris GCSD business area, Cronus, whose methodology was tailored to be generally applicable to the projects executed within the Cronus Business Area and still be compliant with Harris GCSD CMMI® Level 3 Command Media requirements. This tailoring becomes the basis for all projects within Cronus without the need for additional waivers and tailorings. This does not preclude any project from adopting the more general methodology; from further tailoring the Cronus methodology; or, continuing the process further to differentiate between studies, development contracts, quick‐react contracts, and other program types. This paper represents the results of the case study and may be applicable to other business areas within Harris and at other companies.
