AB  - Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI)
is a quality model used in the development of many
products. Software products differ from other types of
products because they are intangible; evolve quickly and
with no physical forms. To assure the quality of
developed software a good quality model should be
applied. One of the good models is CMMI. CMMI
generally used in large-scale firms but it may be
customized to use in small and medium firms. In this
research, we are going to find the impact of using CMMI
practices on the success of small and medium software
firms. The results showed that there is a real problem in
these firms regarding software process improvement
(CMMI). Most firm&#146;s staff have no knowledge about
CMMI. They did not know how it would help in
producing high quality software. The research results will
help small and medium firms to compete in software
development industry, help them also in adopting high
quality models in their development process.
