Delivering public sector efficiencies: The potential role of capability maturity models in construction

This paper is aimed at identifying the potential role of SPICE,
especially SPICE level 3, to achieving the proposed UK public sector
efficiencies. SPICE level 3 presents the process maturity framework to
address the level III of the SPICE model. Building upon the developments
of level II, SPICE 3 advocates establishment of a process improvement
infrastructure to facilitate good practice sharing in construction
organisations. The paper highlights the recommendations of Gershon
reviews, in order to achieve the proposed UK public sector efficiencies. The
potential benefits of SPICE level 3 is identified and further research in this
regard is suggested.
