DEVELOPMENT

PROJECTS KILL AGILE-DEVELOPMENT
sometimes
OR
Why Feature Teams SUCK!
WHY?
CONSTRAINTS
Limited budget - especially fixed price
Limited resources
Limited timescales
WHAT?
BEHAVIOUR
Focus on:
functionality teams formed for life of project
team members fungible
architecture/design 'third class' citizen
"I don't have to live with it"
Everyone is responsible, no one is accountable
monoliths rule Cost over value - what's the depreciation
Multiple teams - one code base
PRODUCT TEAMS
ALIGN TO PRODUCT/PLATFORM/COMPONENT
Promotes:
Code ownership Non functional requirements
Architecture matters "Live with it"
Interfaces to other products
Burn down tech debt
HOW TO AVOID…
"Throw it over the wall" syndrome Isolationism
1 Dimensional teams "Over gilding"
PRODUCT DELIVERY
Product Owner Separate backlog Build in feedback
Feed 'projects' into 'feature funnel'
Services (even in same team)
Shared vision across products
Treat channels as customers
Treat other teams as customers
'T shaped people (not 'resources')
Set percentage of 'technical payback' (or one week in 7)
