Lean Software Contracts
Agile development is great, but it cannot possibly be for you because your software development is done under a contract-outsourced or under an internal service agreement. Right? Wrong! Similar to the way automobile manufacturers have embraced lean manufacturing, you can escape the deadly waterfall development process even in contracted development environments. Lean manufacturing companies have learned over the past twenty years that trust with suppliers lies in specific actions and expectations, not in interpersonal relationships. They understand the "game" of outsourced contracting and know how to structure relationships and write contracts so that both sides are motivated to contribute to the common good. Join Mary Poppendieck, an expert in lean software development, to explore ways to change the contracting game in software development for the better. Take away a new appreciation for writing software development contracts whether you are outsourcing development or doing it internally.
