Common IT Challenge #7

Time-to-Market

In today's fast-paced world, companies are under constant pressure to deliver IT applications to the market faster than ever before. Most software delivery processes are organized as projects that work towards a quarterly release calendar, which is no longer sufficient in today's fast-paced market.

Rapid Software Development

To reduce time-to-market for software development, organizations need to fundamentally change their approach to serving the business. Instead of organizing software delivery as projects that work towards quarterly release calendars, organizations should create multi-disciplinary teams around products. 

Product-oriented teams are fully responsible for the entire product, from development to keeping it running in production. They are authorized to make any necessary improvements to the product and the delivery process. By adopting this approach, organizations can significantly reduce their time-to-market and gain a competitive advantage in today's fast-paced market.
