	  abstract     = {Process improvements have drawn much attention in
practical software engineering. The capability maturity levels from
CMMI have become an important index to assess a software company-s
software engineering capability. However, in countries like
Taiwan, customers often have no choices but to deal with vendors that
are not CMMI prepared or qualified. We call these vendors maturitylevel-
1 (ML1) vendors. In this paper, we describe our experience
from consulting an e-school project. We propose an approach to help
our client tackle the ML1 vendors. Through our system analysis, we
produce a design. This design is suggested to be used as part of
contract and a blueprint to guide the implementation.},
