Understanding Maturity Models in COBIT 2019 To appreciate the utility of the assessment tool, one must first understand the maturity model it employs. COBIT 2019 utilizes the CMMI (Capability Maturity Model Integration) Institute’s capability model, which measures the capability of a process on a scale of 0 to 5. Level 0 represents an "Incomplete" process, where the process is not implemented or fails to achieve its purpose. Level 5 indicates an "Optimizing" process, where the process is continually improved through both incremental and innovative changes. Between these extremes lie "Performed," "Managed," and "Established." The COBIT 2019 Maturity Assessment Tool operationalizes these levels, allowing assessors to determine whether a specific IT process—such as risk management or incident handling—is ad-hoc, repeatable, or fully optimized.
