Implementation of Risk Management with SCRUM to Achieve CMMI Requirements

Majority of the software development companies are practicing agile methods to develop high quality products. SCRUM is one of the most widely used agile methods. Capability maturity model integration (CMMI) is one of the quality standards for software companies. In this research, we propose an implementation of risk management with SCRUM in order to make it compatible with CMMI. We conducted a survey to validate the proposed solution. Questionnaire includes 20 questions that are divided into three goals. The proposed solution is validated through survey with support of 70.94%. We anticipate that the proposed solution will enable software companies to achieve CMMI and it will also improve the quality of software products.
