Development logo
Goal: Development
- Develop software to support ‘large environments’ (>15.000 employees).
Problems
- Project going on now for three years
- Hire people from other departments and externally
- Reliability
- Delivery dates are based on ‘wishes’ instead of actual estimates
- Estimates are not reliable
- Projectmanagement - No subproject is finished because of changing
priorities
- No focus on finishing - subprojects and even tasks
- Teamspirit low
- Team lead determines what happens when
- Employees are unsure about what they are building – no big picture
- Because the project was not finished on time there was a penalty

Maintenance
Goal
- Management: solve all problems
- Employees: solve problems that really need solving NOW
Problems
- Huge backlog of Must issues  480 issues (output 10 per week)
- No time for analysis of ‘weird’ issues
- Must/Should/Could  ‘Never’ folder / High prio should
- Role team lead  does the intake of new issues and assigns
tasks to team members
- Specialists - What the issue is about determines who will do it
- Many escalations
- Natural variation in intake is invisible because the highs fill up the
lows
- No focus on effort, only on number of issues

Help! The developer is drowning.. logo

From Problems to UDE’s logo

Satisfaction
- Leadtimes are often too long
- Priorities are changing constantly

Quality

- Qualitylevels are not met

Flow

Presenter’s
Define Product & Services Catalog logo
1. Size: xsmall, small, medium, large fixes

2. Throughput: 4 pnts (dev days) per person per week
3. Lead Time: Every project, subproject and issue contains a due date
4. Reliability: the amount of work within the produced within the norm
Presenter’s
Excessive Work in Progress? logo
■ Variation & Dependencies

■ Waiting Times
■ Multitasking
■ Longer Leadtimes, Less Throughput
■ Increasing pressure
■ Decreasing quality
Presenter’s
Reduce WIP logo
 Close non-important issues

 Create special teams to remove backlog
 Stop multitasking
Presenter’s
Does your process look like this? logo
Presenter’s
Optimize our process logo
 All steps required to make a good end product  move them to the
main process (remove batching: 2nd review/code inspection,
integrations)
 One process for all developments
 Focus on estimated delivery date
 Drastically reduce time spent in meetings (for a while)
 Brake down the project in as small as possible subprojects and
cards

Buffermanagement
Why does it work?
▪ In all project stages  visible how much buffer is consumed
▪ Easy to define priorities or to discuss objectively
▪ Whole team knows of the buffer status and how an issue influences the project
▪ Less WiP  more focus on finishing
Presenter’s
Assign Tasks to Teams logo
Presenter’s
Teamwork logo
 Team decides about attention needs instead of team lead

 Team focuses on the Goal i.e. finishing tasks
 Teammembers support each other
 Less highs and lows

 What: Identify
 Where to: Decide
 How: Change
