About the Book
Why do millions invested in Agile fail to translate into bottom-line business performance? Agile Constraints Management addresses this critical gap by integrating the adaptive power of Agile with the laser focus of the Theory of Constraints (TOC) and the financial discipline of Throughput Economics. This book provides software engineering executives and Agile practitioners with the strategic blueprint to transform software development from an unpredictable cost center into a predictable profit engine.
Inside, you will discover:
- Constraint Identification: Learn how to pinpoint and manage intangible, system-wide bottlenecks in large-scale collaborative knowledge work.
- The MOVE Construct: Master the Minimal Outcome-Value Effort to replace arbitrary timeboxes with target scopes focused strictly on business outcomes.
- Probabilistic Forecasting: Derive highly reliable delivery timelines using statistical flow metrics, eliminating the need for speculative developer estimates.
- sDBR/DBR Integration: Stabilize your work-in-process to limit volatility and enforce consistent workflow predictability.
- The SOTSOG Method: Apply the Standing on the Shoulders of Giants process to systematically identify and dismantle invalid industry assumptions.
