Configuration Management Certification Training

To define, configuration represents a systematic arrangement of the inter-related parts which winds up ultimately into a system. You need something to control and vouch on the configuration, and that is accomplished by what we know as configuration management. In short, configuration management plays the role of the manager in configuring the system as a whole. Configuration Management is abbreviated as CM. Configuration Management comes into play when an organization feels the need to design, create, manufacture, assemble, test and maintain the systemic products. There are laws which govern the configuration management. These laws are called the immutable laws.

The five functional principles of CM are as follows:

1. Configuration Management Planning and Management
   
2. Configuration Change Management
   
3. Configuration Verification and Audit
   
4. Configuration Identification
   
5. Configuration Status Accounting
   
6. Management Responsibility
   
7. Software Configuration Management
   

Planning is the most important criteria in any scenario. Planning plays a vital role in implementing the SCM to fit and adjust as per different environments. The need to give rise to a CM Framework is the resultant of contracts, standards, initiatives, policies, and regulations. Whatever you plan for the SCM is represented as the CM planning. Once, the preparation is accomplished, the latter principles follow it chronologically. These are inclusive of implementation, control, improvement of process and CM program maintenance.

The underlying motive of the Configuration Management course involves introducing aspirants to the EIA Standards 649 principles. Besides, the course explains the learners with the Configuration Management Processing activities. These activities are essential for the quality entire product. It also plays a significant role in enabling associated system's life-cycle processes.

The course strategy is to assist the individuals as well as organizations with ease in installation of a Configuration Management system. The configuration management system gets installed with a complex system. All the installation is accomplished as per the new philosophy of Configuration Management. This philosophy comes from the desk of the Department of Defense acquisition reform. The philosophy of SCM also traces its origin back to IT proliferation and rise of the industrial standards. The industrial standards rise as an alternative to the military standards.

The course curriculum is what makes the CM course to stand unique. The CM practitioner learns the techniques of applying configuration management strategies in a cost-efficient manner. It is must for a CM practitioner to be a blend of fundamental principles, objectives and the methodology and the ideals of Configuration Management.
