As global competitiveness comes to the software development industry, the search is on for a better way to create first-class software rapidly, repeatedly, and reliably. Lean initiatives in manufacturing, logistics, and services have led to dramatic improvements in cost, quality and delivery time; can they do the same for software development? The short answer is “Absolutely!”
Of the many methods that have arisen to improve software development, Lean is emerging as one that is grounded in decades of work understanding how to make processes better. Lean thinking focuses on giving customers what they want, when and where the want it, without a wasted motion or a wasted minute.
You will learn how to:
·
Develop a value stream map for your current software development organization, and then create a new map for the future.
·
Understand how to drive software quality by moving testing to the front and center of the development process.
·
Gauge the capacity of your software development organization and limit work to match that capacity.
·
Engage people by moving responsibility and decision making to the development team.
·
Apply classic process improvement methods to problems in your environment.
