Deliver Fast and Responsively

Seamlessly Deliver High-Quality Software on Demand

Rapid Responsive Delivery

Market winning businesses produce high quality products and services, release them to market quickly, and continuously adapt solutions based on feedback and market reaction. To delight customers and satisfy market demand, effective delivery depends on lean execution, immediate response to feedback, and near-zero-defect quality.

To support innovation or any higher business agility capability, enterprises must demonstrate the ability to deliver high-quality products rapidly and continuously — a capability we call Delivery Agility.

Components of Delivery Agility

What is Delivery Agility?

Foundational to Business Agility is the ability to ship high quality fast and responsively without losing market share to smaller, more nimble competitors and while retaining customer loyalty and referrals. This is what we call Delivery Agility. We identify three indicators of Delivery Agility:

  1. The ability to build high-quality technology
  2. The ability to deliver fast and responsively
  3. The ability to thrill users

  • Leverage high test automation
  • Automate governance and technical debt tracking

  • Leverage application analytics that provide detailed usage reporting

2. Deliver Fast and Responsively

  • Demonstrate the ability to release to production frequently, if not daily then weekly
  • Retrospect and improve measurably all the time
  • Leverage Continuous Delivery and Deployment pipelines

 

3. Thrill Users

At this level of competency, organizations:

  • Select features intentionally and measure intended outcomes
