What is enterprise value leakage? What is a holistic value stream (e.g. teams, tools and process)? How do you create a manageable value stream strategy? What would it look like in enterprise organizations?

WorkItems get created no matter what
you call it or how fast or slow it flows
or changes….
A stream of activities and workItems
get created in a Flow Of Work
Each Flow Of Work streams across
tools and technologies that assist
and create additional workitems,
activity assets and feedback data.

4. The combined WorkItems
create a Process Flow, or a
stream of connected work.
The Process Flow creates an Information Flow.
Every team has an information flow or status
summary but not all efforts federate up to a
portfolio or corporate view

The Process Flow includes the ToolChain so the
teams can track activity and monitor progress,
delays, dependencies, automated steps…
Versioning across all activities and changes, is
important for cross-discipline collaboration.
"Version control everything is a
common mantra for DevOps
practitioners.”
Supporting the concepts of Fast-Fix, Quick-pivots
or Continuous Improvement requires that the
whole stream can be optimized with traceability.
No matter what tools,
technologies or the name you
give it… SDLC, ALM, Continuous
Integration, Continuous
Delivery, DevOps…
…it needs to make
work more visible, collaborative,
promote engineering
skills mastery and
evolve as needed.
A Value Stream Then needs to…
Connect, Blend and Version Across All Tools, Teams and Disciplines Involved
Gartner recognized
CollabNet VersionOne
as a Leader in Enterprise
Agile Planning Tools
“Running a DevOps initiative
without an Agile transformation
leads to poorer overall agility,
while Agile without DevOps
makes little sense.”

5. The uniqueness of
each team, process
and product line must
be clearly visible and
optimized, especially
if there are hopes for
future improvements.
“Value Stream Management helps…
- identify waste…
- focus on value…
- provides end-to-end visibility…
“Visibility enables better
decisions on prioritization
and investments.”
The needs of “each”
team, needs to be
accommodated,
as long as there is
visibility, traceability
and collaboration.

Uniform standards
for security, quality
compliance and
governance can be
built-in to each flow.
You can manage a
“Agile and DevOps are key transformation practices for software delivery teams. But they are
not enough. Value Stream Management helps them identify waste and focus on value—and
provides end-to-end visibility to all stakeholders.”

6. Measuring efforts
is key, if they are
ever going to
improved, adapt
and pivot as
needed.
“We need to scale Agile and
DevOps to close the loop
between delivery and
business outcome and value.”

A Couple Of Thoughts About Initiatives Without Value Stream Management
“A combination of people, process, and technology that maps, optimizes,
visualizes, and governs business value flow (including epics, stories, work
items) through heterogeneous tools and enterprise software delivery pipelines.”
