GTECH Corporation Software Hubs Earn Prestigious CMM Level 3 Rating
WEST GREENWICH, R.I., March 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- GTECH
Holdings Corporation today announced that its software hubs in
Austin, Texas, and Chennai, India, have earned the Software
Engineering Institute (SEI) Software Capability Maturity Model
(CMM) Level 3 rating for the Company's software engineering
practices. Consisting of five maturity levels, SEI ratings are an
indication of an organization's commitment to providing anorganized
and managed approach to software development. "In a highly
competitive environment, it is critical that our customers have
confidence in their vendor to deliver high quality software," said
GTECH President and CEO W. Bruce Turner. "Achieving a CMM Level 3
rating sets us apart from our competitors and identifies us as an
organization committed to creating institutionalized processes and
procedures, which, in turn, allow us to consistently provide high
quality software." GTECH earned its Level 3 designation following
an independent assessment by the Software Productivity Consortium,
a non-profit organization comprised of academic and government
professionals specializing in systems and software process
improvements. The Level 3 demonstrates that GTECH has implemented
and documented a standard process for creating and maintaining
software, and reflects GTECH's ability to consistently apply
software engineering and management practices across its IT project
portfolio. "The demanding requirements for CMM Level 3
certification, particularly in terms of standardized and documented
software engineering and project management practices, have enabled
us to deliver on technology commitments more efficiently, and
ultimately serve our customers better," said Mr. Turner.
Established in 1986 at Carnegie Mellon University, the SEI
Capability Maturity Model assists many government agencies and
private sector organizations in selecting reliable and high quality
suppliers of software products and services. GTECH, a leading
global information technology company with $1 billion in revenues
and 5,000 people in 44 countries, provides software, networks, and
professional services that power high-performance, transaction

industry, with a growing presence in financial services transaction
processing. For more information about the Company, please visit
