Explanation

A capability maturity model (such as CMMI or the Data Management Capability Assessment Model, DCAM) provides a structured, tiered framework for assessing current data management practices against defined maturity levels and identifying a roadmap for improvement. It offers a consistent, repeatable methodology for evaluation across the organization. Regulatory changes provide compliance obligations but not an evaluation framework. Privacy policies and procedures are internal documents, not evaluation frameworks. Benchmarking studies offer external comparisons but lack the structured, level-based assessment methodology that a maturity model provides.
