LEVEL 2 - It focuses on project-level definition, planning, and performance issues. A statement characterizing this level would be, "Understand what's happening on the project before defining organization-wide processes." LEVEL 3 - It focuses on disciplined tailoring from defined processes at the organization level. A statement characterizing this level would be, "Use the best of what you've learned from your projects to create organization-wide processes." LEVEL 4 - It focuses on measurements being tied to the business goals of the organization.
Although it is essential to begin collecting and using basic project measures early, measurement and use of data are not expected organization-wide until the higher levels have been achieved.

LEVEL 5 - It gains leverage from all the management practice improvements seen in the earlier levels, then emphasizes the cultural shifts that will sustain the gains made.

Sometimes, organizations also snoop their employees legitimately to monitor their use of organizations' computers and track Internet usage.
