Program Scope and Definition

Almost 2/3 of all features are "rarely to never used".  Most of this is due to the fact that organizations set poor expectations on what they want and they do not create the plan that will allow the teams to learn and adjust.

I work side by side with your Product Owners, Architects and Program/Project managers to create a plan that allows teams to deliver incrementally and ensure they are always delivering the most important features.  

Create the Plan

Very rarely do PI/Quarterly/Big Room Planning sessions deliver a plan that ensures everyone is aware of what they are responsible for, what the decision points, dependencies and risks are and how to manage them.  

I work with each team to build their plan and facilitate a Program wargaming event to identify risks, decisions and dependencies that can be used to set expectations with all team members to ensure success and reduce emergencies in your programs.

I will show you how to use an adapted Military Decision Making Process (MDMP) that will allow teams to make well thought out decisions quickly.  

My military and technical experience are combined to help you define your criteria and options to make good decisions quickly.  

Offshore delivery model often achieve less than their desired impacts due to a lack of understanding how to properly manage and coordinate with your offshore teams.  

My agile coaching and delivery lead experience has provided me the opportunity to work with hundreds of offshore teams and develop operating processes that lead to 99% customer acceptance rates on sprint deliverables.  We can help your organization create a model that is predictable and delivers high quality results while still achieving the costs savings desired.
