Tackling Offshore Agile Development
 As an analyst, I have spoken with hundreds of software developers and managers struggling to improve their delivery capabilities. Many are turning to Agile processes as a means to deliver high quality solutions and at the same time improve time to benefits. And, at the same time, these teams need to work with ever-shrinking budgets. Of all the questions they asked about Agile development in 2005, the most common - and the toughest - was: "Can we take advantage of offshore resources and still use Agile processes?"

Generating Real Value From Your Service Oriented Architecture
The question is no longer how best to automate business systems, but rather how to improve what's already been automated. We are nearly finished with the initial wave of IT adoption and most of what can be automated already has been. This means that the essential set of features and functions required to run a business already exists in some form. The trick is how to reuse and repurpose existing investments for additional value.

Agile Processes: Making Metrics Simple
IT organizations, and in particular application development departments, are increasingly under pressure to provide performance and compliance metrics to justify annual spend. Unfortunately, many metrics campaigns collapse under their own weight: there's no shortage of things to measure, the scope is greater than first appears, measurement needs to happen frequently, and collection is a distraction to traditional software delivery operations. By comparison, Agile processes are uniquely well suited to metrics, providing measurements transparently and consistently as an extension of day-to-day operations. Framed in a scorecard, information collected during an Agile project provides a comprehensive analysis of delivery excellence at the project, program and department levels.
