Key Process Areas (KPAs) for Software Engineering Institute (SEI) Maturity Level 4 can be described in terms of Quantitative Process Management (QPM) which is the metric to control the quantitative performance of a software project. On the other hand, Software Quality Management (SQM) monitors and controls the quality of the project. The survey conducted in this paper covers around 20 software houses of Pakistan. The study revealed that there is weakness in both KPAs, SQM and QPM. Each KPA defines a set of rules that are necessary to be followed to meet the standard but many organizations fail to follow these rules defined in every KPA. If specified and appropriate measures are taken, the software industry will lift it up to the higher CMMI Level.
