Where is the problem?
User Manufacturer
1.Problem statement
2.Solution
3.Feedback
Cycle Time = From T1 to T2
Feedback Time = From T1 to T3
At T3, if company realizes the user problem is not solved. Whatever that has been
done to come up with solution is waste irrespective of how efficiently is done.
For Products, data suggests there is higher probability of this waste.
Problem stated got invalid or changed before the solution is delivered.
T1
T2
T3
Longer cycle / feedback time is essentially one of the key problems.

Manufacturing Waste Software Manufacturing Waste
Overproduction Extra Features, unnecessary code, unnecessary testing..
Waiting
Delays waiting for inputs from other function
Delays due to period reviews
waiting for infrastructure
waiting for next build
Inventory
Any work in progress
Requirements not yet designed
Design yet to be coded
Code yet to be tested
stories features tested but yet to be released
Transportation Information passing in global teams with different time zones
Defects
Incomplete requirements, inadequate design, coding errors, incorrect environments, user
documentation errors...
Movement Task switching (50% project 1, 20% project 2, 30% project 3)
Overprocessing process overheads - approved documentation

Still daunting questions for software industry are …
Are we building the right thing?
Are we delivering in efficient way?
Taylor specified
System first in place??
20. Your ALM and DevOps Partner

that can elevate
and
help in reducing these wastes??

28. System to achieve Enterprise Agility
● Enterprise Agility emphasizes on keeping WIP/ Inventory low and go to production
ASAP. Agile Scrum + Automation of CI + CD + Testing only can enable this.
Note : Effective WIP (batch size) is subjective to organization

Final note
In Order to achieve operational
excellence, organizations need to
have Integrated and automated
ALM & DevOps in place and
continuously improve that
For implementing Integrated ALM
and DevOps solution you need
competent partner.
