The CMMI Maturity Level 4 achieved by EPAM Systems focuses on the quantitative management of organizational process performance and project management.

The assessment was carried out by a team headed by the SEI-authorized Lead Assessor Kent A. Johnson, TeraQuest Metrics, Inc. according to the Standard CMMIR Assessment Method for Process Improvementsm (SCAMPIsm). The training and consulting had been provided by TeraQuest in partnership with Gartner Group, Inc.
