� CII’s TCM maturity model is not only evaluation tools, it also guides companies to achieve excellence
� Assessment process comprise of filling one detailed questionnaire followed by visit of assessment team to observe the demonstration of processes explained in questionnaire
� This questionnaire is so well developed and designed that it captures all activities of an entity. Filling this questionnaire is so self propelling that it clearly throws an unbiased mirror image of our true maturity level of cost management practices.
� Further this questionnaire focus more on processes and practices rather that data. This allows this assessment to be done with out compromising on confidentiality
�This model is designed to help Indian companies to achieve excellence and enhance cost competitiveness which will ensure effective utilization of resources for India as a country.
