The pragmatic solution—proven successful in numerous client engagements—is purpose-built to provide the tools developers and executives need to drive organizational performance and deliver business results. With a strong focus on usability and scalability, ResultSpace leverages Sapient’s unique delivery approach to provide Agile organizations the development, planning and analysis tools needed to succeed. With ResultSpace, you can finally manage the increasingly distributed and complex IT environments of today’s Agile enterprise.



PRODUCT FEATURES

Comprehensive Story Management—Associations between artifacts are created and managed by ResultSpace, streamlining the process of building stories, detailing requirements and facilitating quality assurance, allowing the team to focus on creating value instead of manual bookkeeping. Changes made to stories and their associated tasks, tests, defects and issues are captured and traced bi-directionally, providing an integrated and easily browsed view into project knowledge.

Intelligent, Scalable Agile Project Management—ResultSpace provides a rich visual environment for planning iterations and releases, dividing and load-balancing work across multiple teams, tracking progress and reporting accomplishments. Using simple rules and workflows, ResultSpace ensures that that information flows through your development process in a consistent fashion and significant issues and at-risk work items attain needed visibility at every level – from task and story, to project and program.

Pervasive Wikis—ResultSpace’s intelligent wiki engine, complemented by a rich editor interface, enables users to effectively participate in the collaborative software development process throughout the ALM environment. All stories, tasks, tests, defects and issues are supported by wikis, ensuring that ideas can be captured flexibly and contextually with links to one another and to assets such as graphics and code—all backed by secure Subversion configuration management.

Meaningful Real-Time Reporting—Real-time data is essential for effective decision-making. ResultSpace produces myriad management views that provide immediate visual feedback into project progress and product quality. ResultSpace provides templates for iteration checkpoints, team-retrospectives and defect/issue review reports. Additionally, ResultSpace supports custom report construction through its powerful wiki engine, allowing live or point-in-time project snapshots that tell a story and encourage action.

BENEFITS TO THE USER

Productivity For Teams—ResultSpace’s unique activity-oriented user interface organizes functionality around the explicit activities that support Agile projects: release planning meetings, collaborative story design sessions, end-iteration customer checkpoints and team retrospectives, to name a few. By doing away with functional silos within the ALM environment, ResultSpace aligns with the familiar day-to-day experiences of your cross-functional and self-organizing teams. In turn, team members enjoy increased productivity resulting from dramatic reductions in time-consuming context switches

Transparency for Customers—Software innovations are most readily realized when your teams and customers work as true partners. ResultSpace supports this paradigm through a simple role-based model that connects customers with the information they need to understand project progress, dependencies and blocking issues. It also rightfully includes customers in the processes of requirements elicitation, prioritization and acceptance.

Visibility for Managers—In today’s business world, cycle time and waste elimination are paramount. ResultSpace helps your project managers and executives distill complex information into the critical data points needed to make key decisions that support delivery success. Using simple visualization and reporting tools, ResultSpace focuses attention on blocking issues and time traps, ensuring that problems are identified, addressed and resolved as early as possible – before your costs skyrocket.

Built to Stand the Test of Time—We designed ResultSpace from the ground up to provide you with massive scalability at an affordable price. By leveraging open standards and open-source technologies, Sapient has constructed a true enterprise Agile ALM solution designed to meet the demands of today’s complex IT environments. With support for LDAP, server clustering and data replication, ResultSpace is designed to meet the needs of growing businesses.
