About this Presentation
Significant advance has been made in the field of software development with the introduction of Agile and Scrum. Both seek to introduce a mindset of flow and also handle the intrinsic problem of scope variance that exists in software development. Despite the significant success Agile (and Scrum) have lived with significant limitation that have not yet being solved: the difficulty to determine and deliver to specific due dates, the ways each sprint can be used to pressure resources to be locally optimized and the inducing of batches (each sprint) that work against the principles of flow. In this presentation, we will present a solution that implements the flow principles to the development of software limiting WIP and assuming a one-piece flow work release. Questions like how to measure WIP, how to choke the release and how to estimate delivery dates are treated. The solution was implemented in a large Brazilian Software company and we will show the obstacles and specificities involved as well as results like increasing global productivity of the team by 108% and reducing 58% the lead time to deliver.
