CIBER Partners with Carnegie Mellon University’s Software Engineering Institute to Provide Training Services

McLEAN, Va. - July 22, 2008 - Denver-based CIBER, Inc. (NYSE: CBR) today announced that its Federal Government Solutions Division, based in McLean, Va., has become a member of the Carnegie Mellon University’s Software Engineering Institute (SEI) Partner Network.  As an SEI Partner, the SEI will authorize qualified CIBER employees to teach the SEI’s "Introduction to CMMI" course. The SEI’s acceptance of CIBER into its Partner Network supports CIBER’s training capabilities and complements the firm’s numerous instructor-led and media-based training offerings.

The SEI is a federally-funded research and development center that conducts software engineering research in acquisition, architecture and product lines, process improvement and performance measurement, security, and system interoperability and dependability.  SEI actively promotes the Capability Maturity Model® Integration (CMMI®), a process improvement approach that helps organizations integrate traditionally separate organizational functions (such as accounting, human resources, and information technology), set process improvement goals and priorities, provide guidance for quality processes, and provide a point of reference for appraising current processes.

The course CIBER will be teaching—"Introduction to CMMI"—is a three-day course that introduces systems and software engineering managers and practitioners, appraisal team members, and engineering process group members to CMMI® fundamental concepts, models, and tools to help organizations improve their ability to develop and maintain quality products and services.

“Becoming an SEI Partner is a key component of our strategy to achieve excellence and continued process improvement for ourselves and for our customers,” said Ron Smith, the CIBER Federal Business Unit Leader who sponsors this partnership.

CIBER plans to extend its offerings to include the SEI’s Standard CMMI Appraisal Method for Process Improvement (SCAMPI) Lead Appraiser services.  SCAMPI is the SEI’s official appraisal methodology for determining an CMMI maturity (or capability) rating.

“We are proud of this partnership and will use it to improve our internal processes as well as help our customers achieve increasingly higher levels of excellence,” said Marcia Kim, President, CIBER Federal Government Solutions Division.

CIBER offers numerous other instructor-led and media-based training services. CIBER is currently partnering with the National Institute of Aerospace (NIA) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to build an educational outreach program that captures the lifetime experiences and knowledge of senior scientists and engineers and shares those experiences and knowledge with current NASA employees, the next generation of NASA engineers, and the academic community.

One of CIBER’s NESC Academy training products won the top Telly Award in the non-broadcast productions category in 2007. The Telly Award is the premier award honoring outstanding local, regional, and cable TV commercials and programs, as well as the finest video and film productions.

CIBER provides information technology consulting services to private and public companies, as well as to local, state, and federal government entities. CIBER was recently ranked the tenth best global outsourcing vendor worldwide, according to a June 2008 Brown-Wilson Group survey, up two places from its 12th place ranking in 2007. The Brown-Wilson Group, author of The Black Book of Outsourcing, conducts annual surveys of CEOs, CFOs, CIOs, and other business decision-makers at Fortune 2000 organizations to understand users’ evaluations of global outsourcing service providers.
