This book describes pragmatic instruments and methods that enable
business experts and software engineers to develop a common
understanding of the software to be created, to determine their key
requirements, and to manage the project in a way that fosters
trust, encourages innovation and distributes risk fairly between
clients and contractors. After an introduction to the fundamentals
of agile software development in Part I, Part II describes the
Interaction Room, an actual room where digitalization and
mobilization strategies are developed, where technology potentials
are evaluated, where software projects are planned and managed, and
where business and technical stakeholders can communicate face to
face, visualize complex relationships intuitively, and highlight
value, effort and risk drivers that are keys to the project's
success. After addressing these constructive aspects, the book
focuses on the commercial aspects of software development: The
adVANTAGE contract model described in Part III ensures that the
insight-driven innovation process of software development does not
just function, but is allowed to flourish in a trusted
client-contractor relationship. Even though software contracting
and construction may be grounded in two different academic
disciplines, they are inseparable in practice, and how they
interact is illustrated in the case study of developing a private
health insurance benefit system in Part IV. Ultimately though, the
success of every software project depends on the skills of the
stakeholders. Part V therefore describes the qualification profile
that software engineers and domain experts have to satisfy today.
This book is aimed at CIOs, project managers and software engineers
in industrial software development practice who want to learn how
to effectively deal with the inevitable uncertainty of complex
projects, who want to achieve higher levels of understanding and
cooperation in their relationships with clients and contractors,
and who want to run lower-risk software projects despite their
inherent uncertainties.
