Dr. Theo van Stratum spent 18 months analyzing why software projects fail despite following "best practices." After forensically examining 112,000 Flow Items across 47 enterprise projects, he discovered that 67% of reported "velocity improvements" were measurement artifacts—story point inflation masking stagnant throughput.

This book is the result of that investigation: a statistical framework that replaces Agile Theatre with actuarial governance.

Theo has led engineering teams and project rescue initiatives across Fintech, SaaS, and Healthcare sectors. He advocates for fiduciary transparency in software capital allocation and believes CTOs deserve the same statistical rigour for delivery forecasting that CFOs demand for financial projections.
