In the waterfall approach to software development, everything goes through phase gates that are sequential. In simple english, this means a service may be obsolete by the time it is ready for use.

It starts with a universe of requirements, followed by Big upfront design (BUFD), followed by code marathons leading to a big bang software release. This type of software development practice is too risky and inflexible with too many unknown dependencies and produces a product that can be leap years from real user requirements.

Project Turnaround

 

The best laid plans are just that, the best laid plans. Projects invariably run into issues. You are not alone. A recent study put the chances of failure or delay for large projects at 94%. If your projects are trending yellow or orange, we might be able to help.

We can bring in our experienced SWAT team of technologists to get things back on track.

By combining our decades of industry experience to identify root causes coupled with our proven process to move downstream and eliminate bottlenecks, we may be that team that can save the day.

If you have a project that could use a face lift or a turnaround, we can help.

Time is of essence, If you connect with us early enough, we might be able to turn things around quickly. If it can’t be done, we will help you apply best practices and mitigations required to communicate to stakeholders and will collaborate on creating a revised plan.
