Idemia gets CMMI level 3 appraisal Idemia NSS has earned level 3 appraisal of its Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI), performed by ChangeBridge Consulting. A company announcement mentions that CMMI is a time-tested outcome-based performance model that has become the global standard for improving capability, ensuring optimal business performance, and aligning operations with business goals. The level 3 appraisal also means the company’s processes are well-characterized and -understood, and are described in standards, procedures, tools and methods, the announcement adds. Patrick Clancey, president and chief executive of Idemia NSS, says, “Organizations worldwide are harnessing CMMI to elevate their business performance. Achieving maturity level 3 is the product of constant effort across NSS, demonstrating our ability as a high-performing organization. This accomplishment further illustrates our focus on continuous improvement and the relentless commitment to support our nation’s toughest mission sets.” Nodeflux achieves TKDN certification for AI surveillance Nodeflux says it has become the first domestic AI software company in Indonesia to earn the Domestic Component Level (TKDN) certification with a score of up to 99.04 percent, allowing it to enter the LKPP e-catalog from the government for VisionAIre products. The certification is a government program which aims to encourage optimum performance of national industries through productivity and competitiveness in the delivery of strategic state-funded projects. “This TKDN certificate complements the performance of VisionAIre Docker from Nodeflux, which was previously also an AI company from Indonesia, which was the first to pass the NIST (National Institute of Standard and Technology) test from the United States as a facial recognition vendor,” says Meidy Fitranto, Nodeflux CEO. Fitranto says earning the certification is a big boost for Nodeflux, a company operating in an environment dominated by foreign AI suppliers. Nodeflux’s chief business officer, Ivan Tigana, says “of the five legal institutions in Indonesia, four of them have adopted VisionAIre.” AI ethics, governance certification awarded to NEC Efforts by NEC APAC to encourage professional development in AI ethics and governance in the workplace, and its commitment toward building an effective and trusted AI ecosystem, have been recognized by the Singapore Computer Society.
