Title:Dynamic Design Prioritization
Proposer: Tom Gilb
Type: Tutorial
Duration: 90 mins
Description:
'Intelligent Project Management' (for a change, or it that an Oxymoron?) A proposed solution the the 50% total and 40%
additional failure rate of software projects
1. Static Prioritization methods; Limitations and
Dangers ('Holy' CoWs like MoSCoW, Fixed
Weights, BCS, QFD, ranking lists, manager
priority declarations). Declared to be
dangerous to your project health, and
seriously obsolete for serious projects.
2. Case studies (IBM Cleanroom, Confirmit, Citigroup)
that show that high quality projects can be delivered
on time and budget, consistently, using agile dynamic
prioritization methods such as Cleanroom or Evo (as
opposed to conventional Agile methods which do not even
consider high multiple quality levels and use primitive, non-
engineering methods such as Scrum, DSDM, RUP).
3. Practical mechanisms to enable dynamic prioritization:
a. Quantified top level requirements
b. Impact estimation
c. Actual cyclical impact tracking (test, measurement of value and quality delivery continuously)
d. Dynamic Design to Cost architecture (Quinnan IBM)
