COBIT 2019 Foundation — Question 58

According to Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI), which of the following BEST describes Level 2 within the five maturity levels for processes?

Answer options

• A. The process achieves its purpose through the application of a basic, yet complete, set of activities that can be characterized as performed.
• B. The process achieves its purpose in a much more organized way using organizational assets, and processes are typically well defined.
• C. The process more or less achieves its purpose through the application of an incomplete set of activities that can be characterized as intuitive and not very organized.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer, A, accurately describes Level 2 as it indicates that processes are performed through a complete set of activities. Option B refers to a higher maturity level where processes are well defined and organized, which is not characteristic of Level 2. Option C describes a lower maturity level where processes are incomplete and unorganized, thus not applicable to Level 2.
