Are you wondering why your IT modernization & Digital Transformation projects aren't proceeding as desired your adoption of agile, scrum & SAFe aren't delivering the results you hoped for?
This presentation will visually explain many of the challenges you face, in a way that even your boss and stakeholders can understand.
I'll show you:
1. How to explain why math prevents you from accurately estimating project timelines and are therefore never actually behind schedule.
2. The negative impacts of deadline-driven development and how to avoid them.
3. How to explain the difference between startup agile and enterprise agile, and what happens you confuse the two.
4. Why you need to design and architect for the 1% of your customers that drive 80% of your complexity and 50+% of your revenue.
5.The concept of minimum viable replacement and how to think about modernization/migration projects.
6. Why throwing away work is a good engineering practice and how it can save you money
7. How to avoid confusing in market with market ready.

Have you ever wondered why your projects go off the rails despite all your efforts and your confidence about each task? Then learn the math that explains why plans fail so you can be prepared for the future.
The Merwyn Rapid Research Subsystem enables faster innovation and reduced risk by shortening testing time and lowering costs by up to 50-99%. It does this by establishing internal and external networks of experts to provide rapid, specific feedback on concepts in just 90 minutes, allowing companies to cycle through ideas up to 20 times faster and at 90% lower costs compared to traditional research methods. The system aims to make research easier and less expensive so companies can take more risks and build courage to experiment more.
See how metrics can be used with your Kanban System for managing flow, your project and changes.
At least three practices of the Kanban Method imply the use of metrics. Metrics can be powerful tools. Sadly most kanban systems donāt make use of them and miss out on a big chance to make things easier. Metrics can help us with lots of different things we encounter in business like finishing projects on budget and on time, fighting for survival in the market, and continuous change to adapt in this complex world. Learn how metrics can help you and how to choose the right metric for your situation.
Data driven decision making culture. It sounds great in theory, but how do you really get there in practice?
In this talk I will share insights, stories and examples of data visualisations from my quest to create a data driven decision making culture. I'll show you where to start in building a data driven culture, how to overcome common data resistance patterns and how to create an environment where people use data by default as an input to making decisions around product delivery.
This document presents a simple model for estimating project timelines without guessing. It involves measuring a team's past throughput and variability to determine optimistic and pessimistic forecasts. The forecasts are used to estimate completion dates for milestones and stories with confidence ranges rather than single points. This provides a more realistic view of uncertainty than point estimates alone.

In this presentation, we demonstrate how Continuous Delivery Indicators of Stability and Speed can be used to steer the transformation of a large product delivery organization to Continuous Delivery in a data-driven way.
You will learn how we have been driving our transformation towards Continuous Delivery in a large product delivery organization at Siemens Healthineers Digital Health. We apply Continuous Delivery Indicators of Stability and Speed to find bottlenecks in development teamsā value streams and use the bottlenecks to prioritize changes in a data-driven way.
An organizational transformation towards Continuous Delivery of software to production requires changes of all processes in a traditional product delivery organization ranging from portfolio management, product management to test, development and operations.
Undertaking a transformation of that order of magnitude requires careful prioritization of changes. The prioritization can be undertaken effectively based on the bottleneck analysis of the development teamsā value streams. This can be done automatically using Continuous Delivery Indicators of Stability and Speed.

No estimates - 10 new principles for testingVasco Duarte

This document outlines 10 principles for software development without estimates. It begins by discussing trusting or changing your process (Principle 1) and shortening feedback cycles (Principle 2). Data is presented showing estimates are often inaccurate, with 80% of projects being late or over budget. Principle 3 states to believe data over estimates. Alternatives to estimate-driven decision making are suggested in Principle 4. Principles 5-8 discuss testing for value, measuring progress with working software, and understanding predictable system outputs. Principle 9 advocates using methods with proven track records over hoping estimates will improve. The transformation begins with individuals, per Principle 10.
Mike Kvintus discusses the pitfalls of estimation in agile software development and experiments with eliminating estimates. He analyzed data from 9 projects and found that simply counting story cards provided the same insights as estimating points. However, he acknowledges the approach may not work in all contexts. Ultimately, he argues teams should focus on improving predictability through other means like frequent releases and collaboration, rather than relying on flawed estimates. He plans to create a website to share project data with others exploring this issue.

This document discusses metrics in an agile environment. It notes that traditional metrics were designed for a linear world but product development is complex and unpredictable. Instead of trying to control outcomes, we can observe and learn from results to continually improve. The document outlines several types of metrics that can provide insights into business outcomes, product quality, processes, and team health/maturity without attempting to over-control the system. These include metrics like lead time, throughput, work in progress, technical debt, and happiness indexes. Cumulative flow diagrams and control charts are also discussed as ways to visualize workflow and identify improvement opportunities.
While LeanKit sell a kanban tool, we firmly believe that kanban is only one of many powerful tools available to Lean practitioners and that all of these tools are best applied within a framework of Lean principles.

This document summarizes research from a presentation on productivity from telework. The presentation discusses the benefits of telework including increased productivity, employee satisfaction, and cost reductions. A survey of 350 home workers found that the overwhelming majority reported increased productivity when working from home, with increases in output up to 25% for some. The main reasons for increased productivity included fewer interruptions at home, the ability to better balance work and commitments, and making use of commuting time for work. The implications discussed are that traditional assumptions about lack of productivity from home are wrong, and telework should be incorporated into business strategies given the substantial gains it can provide to the bottom line.
The document discusses the seven deadly sins of enterprise software development and provides advice for overcoming challenges with digital transformation projects. It argues that accurately forecasting the future is impossible when a project involves both complexity and uncertainty. Traditional project management approaches assume one can perfectly predict outcomes, but complexity grows exponentially as more tasks and variables are added. The ability to forecast success decays rapidly as a result. Additionally, customer adoption depends on perceived value, work required, and willingness to change - which are also difficult to predict accurately. Ultimately, the document advises that any complexity or unknowns drives the ability to forecast a project's scope and timeline close to zero.

The document discusses the challenges of accurately predicting outcomes for complex enterprise software projects. It notes that traditional project management approaches assume one can forecast the future with high confidence, but in reality predicting success decays exponentially as uncertainty and the number of variables increase. The ability to forecast is near zero for projects with complexity and unknowns that exceed knowns. Instead of starting projects with overconfidence, they should begin with more uncertainty and validate key assumptions.

This document discusses frameworks for replacing legacy technologies with new technologies for existing customers. It begins by noting that large IT projects often fail due to unrealistic expectations not aligning with reality. The document then introduces the Minimum Viable Replacement (MVR) framework as an alternative to the Minimum Viable Product (MVP) framework for these types of replacement projects. The MVR framework focuses on replacing existing technologies for existing customers, rather than introducing new capabilities to new customers as the MVP framework does. The document outlines a five step process for MVR projects that includes assessing if it is an MVR project, decomposing the project, identifying risks and opportunities, developing strategies to maximize benefits and minimize risks, and iterating throughout the project.

Innovative Silicon Valley companies like Etsy leverage DevOps and Continuous Delivery practices to achieve new levels of automation and agility, shrinking development lead times and deploying to production many times each day. However, many companies struggle to implement these practices for the legacy systems that run their core business. To make matters worse, the agile community offers relatively little practical guidance for implementing DevOps practices in legacy environments. Fortunately, the Kanban Method provides a practical way to gradually evolve these core systems towards achieving DevOps cost savings and efficienciesāwithout turning your organization upside down, and even if you donāt have a massive budget.
Through a case study involving a criminal justice system for a US government agency, we will examine how the Kanban method helps us identify and remove the barriers that prevent us from implementing DevOps automation for legacy systems. Just as importantly, Kanban provides the means to measure the efficacy of our efforts, prompting us to course-correct when necessary. Both technology-related and human-related concerns will be addressed. We will review some interesting examples using the Microsoft technology stack. The end result is better quality and collaboration and faster delivery of value to our stakeholders. Perhaps it is possible to teach an old dog new tricks, after all.

The document discusses using Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM) to better manage project risk and variation. It explains that CCPM uses buffers and the theory of constraints to protect project due dates from the effects of variation. Projects are scheduled using a critical chain approach which identifies the critical chain of tasks and calculates buffers based on statistical analysis of variation. This allows the project schedule to function as a predictive model and maintain protection ratios to keep customers insulated from impacts of variation.
Flow efficiency - a digital operations strategyMarcio Sete
Ā
The document discusses two different operations strategies: resource efficiency and flow efficiency. Resource efficiency focuses on maximizing the utilization of resources, which can lead to increased queues and wait times. Flow efficiency prioritizes ensuring each work item continuously moves through the process, in order to reduce lead times. The document argues flow efficiency is preferable, as it avoids secondary needs and superfluous work that can arise from long lead times under a resource efficiency approach. It also presents frameworks for measuring and managing flow to improve operational performance.

Minimum Viable Replacement: April 25, 2021kevinjmireles
Ā
The document discusses the concept of a "Minimum Viable Replacement" (MVR), a framework for retiring old products and replacing them with new technology. An MVR is designed to replace an existing solution for existing customers while moving everyone off legacy systems. The key focus of an MVR is avoiding breakage and losing existing capabilities and customers, unlike a Minimum Viable Product which aims to acquire new customers. Successfully executing an MVR is complex, as it requires developing multiple MVPs to meet the needs of all customer segments, including customizations. It is important to balance meeting existing customer needs while serving new markets.
The Billion Dollar Challenge: Making Memphis the Leader in Inclusive Tech, Li...kevinjmireles
Ā
The document outlines a "Billion Dollar Challenge" initiative to make Memphis a leader in inclusive technology, lifelong learning, and automation adoption. It notes that thousands of high-paying jobs are going unfilled due to gaps in education and hiring. The initiative aims to increase education capacity to meet growing demand for tech talent and help transition people to new jobs. Achieving its goal of adding 10,000 new tech workers could generate over $1 billion in new annual income and economic activity by 2025. It proposes forming a new coalition called MAIKE to drive community-wide collaboration around building the local tech ecosystem.

Ā
The Technami is coming and Memphis can either surf it or be crushed by it. If we do the right things, Memphis has a multibillion opportunity to lift people from poverty to prosperity. If we don't we'll be crushed.
The document discusses the concept of a Minimum Viable Replacement (MVR) compared to a Minimum Viable Product (MVP). An MVR framework is designed to help companies replace or re-platform existing software, rather than develop entirely new functionality. It involves developing the minimum set of features needed to transition existing customers to a new system and retire the old one. This requires determining the MVP needed for each customer segment. The more customizations required, the more difficult the migration. Companies must balance meeting existing customer needs while having the opportunity to serve new markets.
Preventing the Digital 9/11 & Other Cyber Disasterskevinjmireles
Ā
The question is not whether the Digital 9/11 or Pearl Harbor will happen, but which will come first and whether we'll have implemented the societal structures to prevent complete disaster prior to the big event.
This document outlines a framework for calculating the probability of successfully executing a business software project within estimated time and scope. It considers factors such as the probability of technical success based on confidence in the team and technology, the probability of successful customer adoption based on perceived value, work required, and other factors, and how the number of discrete project components affects probability. It provides questions to assess confidence in the team, technology, perceived value, and perceived work required to determine probabilities. Additional power, culture, personality, and environmental factors are also discussed as potentially impacting the probability of successful adoption.
Memphis innovation & technology councilkevinjmireles
Ā
The document discusses the lack of an overarching organization focused on improving innovation and technology in Memphis. It notes that while there are many groups working in this area, there is little collaboration resulting in duplication of efforts and slower progress. It proposes creating a Memphis Innovation & Technology Council, with a paid director, to increase collaboration between organizations, expand education opportunities, advocate for the community's technology vision, and improve access to innovation for all. The goal would be to integrate technology into K-12 education and make it a core part of the curriculum.

The document describes a proposed civic engagement platform called MyRepresentatives that aims to connect citizens with their government representatives. It notes current problems with finding and engaging with representatives.

It plans to start locally in Memphis and expand nationally and globally, and is seeking grant funding to accelerate development and adoption.
āTwas the night before Christmas and all the little rabbits were nestled all snug in their beds, with thoughts of dolls dancing in their heads.

Graspan: A Big Data System for Big Code AnalysisAftab Hussain
Ā
We built a disk-based parallel graph system, Graspan, that uses a novel edge-pair centric computation model to compute dynamic transitive closures on very large program graphs.
We implement context-sensitive pointer/alias and dataflow analyses on Graspan. An evaluation of these analyses on large codebases such as Linux shows that their Graspan implementations scale to millions of lines of code and are much simpler than their original implementations.
These analyses were used to augment the existing checkers; these augmented checkers found 132 new NULL pointer bugs and 1308 unnecessary NULL tests in Linux 4.4.0-rc5, PostgreSQL 8.3.9, and Apache httpd 2.2.18.

Why do we continually pick designs and continue to plow
money into them when we know theyāre not ideal?
Despite adopting agile processes, organizations still have waterfall mindset and
believe:
1. Teams should have been able to design everything correctly up front
2. Experimenting with multiple designs is a waste because you should already
know everything
3. Learning and wisdom canāt be quantified and therefore are not valued
4. Progress should be a straight line measured quantitatively and anything that
veers from that is waste
5. Throwing away work represents failure not learning and good judgement
49. 49
Fear-driven development results in sinking money into
suboptimal designs that ultimately need to be replaced at
3-5X the cost of having experimented early on

SAF recommends set-based design to avoid being locked into a
design that may not work but requires leadership to embrace
throwing away work as a good engineering practice not a failure

Startup agile requires little planning, low risk and can
easily leverage existing infrastructure

Enterprise agile requires lots of planning, high risk and
often entirely new infrastructure and architectural
approaches to deal with the challenges of scale
Need to answer:
ā¢Is it useful?
ā¢Is it valuable?
ā¢Is it usable?
ā¢Can it scale?

The Pareto Principle says to focus on the 80%, but the
