In an Immature Organization
• No consensus on what are the objective or goals of– The organisation– The project– The product– The process
02 August 2012
©Q:PIT Ltd 2011-2012 36
Improving…
• Requires commitment from all levels of management and practitioners to the effort
• Document what you are doing, then read what you did
• Measure, collect, analyse, learn• Management requires that processes be
documented and measured• People accept to learn from their mistakes
rather than fear retribution02 August 2012
©Q:PIT Ltd 2011-2012 37
Life in a Maturing Organization
• People (at all levels) see issues and problems as possibilities to improve
• Measurements are seen as a necessary management tool
• Estimates are based on facts and documented• The schedule is based on the estimates• Commitment is maintained and considered as
commitments by all involved

In a Mature Organization
Working together towards a common goal
02 August 2012
©Q:PIT Ltd 2011-2012 39
A Mature Culture 1/2
• Common approach to the work and the success of the organization
• Decisions and estimates based on facts, data and experience
• Plans based on what can be achieved and working together to ensure customer satisfaction with regard to quality, functionality, budget and delays
• Assurance that the resources required for a task will be available as expected
02 August 2012
©Q:PIT Ltd 2011-2012 40
A Mature Culture 2/2
• Liberation of the imagination to continuous, common improvement
• Focus of all on delivering a product that satisfies the customer and placing the customer’s needs and expectations first
• Everyone taking personal responsibility for the quality of his/her own work and ensuring that the quality is optimized before responsibility is handed over to the next step of the development lifecycle
02 August 2012

Immature Processes
• Processes are ad hoc and improvised by practitioners and their management
• Process descriptions are not rigorously followed or enforced• Performance is highly dependent on current practitioners• Understanding of the current status of a project is limited• Immature processes result in fighting fires:
– no time to improve—constantly reacting– Firefighters get burned– Embers may rekindle later

Mature Processes = Fire Prevention
• Process descriptions are consistent with the way work actually gets done
• They are defined, documented, and continuously improved• Processes are supported visibly by management and others• They are well controlled—process fidelity is evaluated and
enforced• There is constructive use of product and process
measurement• Technology is introduced in a disciplined manner

Mature Processes Are Institutionalized
• “That’s the way we do things around here”• The organization builds an infrastructure that contains
effective, usable, and consistently applied processes• The organizational culture conveys the process• Management nurtures the culture• Culture is conveyed through role models and
recognition• Institutionalized processes endure after the people
who originally defined them have gone

Value and Cost
• What is the value of improvement to your organization?
• Why would you want to invest so much money, knowing you will have no return on investment in this budget cycle or the next?
• What are the benefits of improvement to your business, to the quality of your products and services, to your customer satisfaction?
02 August 2012
©Q:PIT Ltd 2011-2012 58
Cost and Investment
Cost• Improvement is a cost:
– Staff is not made available– Tools are too expensive– Don’t bother the “real” projects– What is the minimum we need to
do to satisfy the lead appraiser?– Can we do a CMMI appraisal in 2
days like an ISO audit?– Focus on training staff to answer
the questions of the appraisal team
– Staff are trusted to understand and apply without training or support
Investment• Improvement is an investment:
– The cost of bad quality is understood– Improving all future projects is
critically important – even if it presents a risk to the success of one on-going project
– Customers are involved in the improvement programme
– All new processes, projects, products are measured according to a primary need
– Management is actively and visibly interested in the return on their investment
02 August 2012
Fail!
©Q:PIT Ltd 2011-2012 59
Management and Leadership
• Management needs to understand the cost of process improvement and be willing to make the necessary adjustments
• Leadership means going there first:– Is management ready to apply the principles of
process improvement to their own work?– Who does quality assurance on management’s work?– Has your management applied formal decision and risk
analysis techniques to deciding why they should do process improvement?

IT is our business. Our aim is to deliver innovative IT support solutions that add value for our customers and support their business growth.We help our customers by constantly innovating, and introducing new, easier, and more secure support and delivery services. We help increase the efficiency of customers' operations and add value to related products and services.We also bring value to our customers’ end-users who depend on their reliability (and, by definition, to the hardware and software suppliers that serve them) – through the provision of fast, secure services which, in most instances, benefit from a valuable quality guarantee.And, of course, we bring value to the consumers and the businesses that use us to manage their infrastructure – by bringing greater levels of convenience, security, and confidence.During the past financial year, the number of customers who rely on us increased by 14.7%.Technological change is having a significant impact on the European market. For example, e-commerce represents a large and rapidly growing share of the overall market, retailers are progressively investing in new facilities and solutions, and it is widely anticipated that mobile devices will come to be used to initiate sales on a mass scale.

Policies
• Translating real objectives into realistic expectations• Policies are constitutional law
– No one is above the law– It is known by everyone
• If the policy does not come from senior management, they will not consider themselves bound by the policy
• The policies reflect the management expectations (and not the contents of some model, standard or theory!)
02 August 2012
©Q:PIT Ltd 2011-2012 70
Writing a Policy• Questions:
– What makes us different from others?– Why would a prospect come to us rather than to our competitors?– How can we ensure that we are satisfying our customers without
jeopardizing the future of our organization?– What do we mean when we use the word "quality"? How do we measure
that?– What are the critical practices that are required by all teams in order to
satisfy these objectives?– What behaviour do we expect from our staff?– How can we ensure that we learn and continuously improve these
practices and behaviours over time?– How can we encourage, monitor, measure and enforce this behaviour?– How can we communicate this to everyone concerned?
02 August 2012
©Q:PIT Ltd 2011-2012 71
Contents of the Policy
• Define Quality– When you talk about quality in your marketing material, what do
you mean? How do you define quality in a pragmatic, measurable manner?
• Process Expectations– Why do you believe that process is going to help your
organization?– What do you expect to get out of processes?
• Staff Expectations– What do you expect your staff to be doing? What should their
attitude be?– What do you want your staff to deliver in terms of results?
02 August 2012
©Q:PIT Ltd 2011-2012 72
Enforcing the Policy
• A law is useless if it is not enforced• The policy must reflect the monitoring, control
and enforcement procedure• Before enforcing staff activities, you need to
understand how to monitor it, how to measure your objectives

How to Measure
• What do you believe will be the visible difference? If there is no visible difference in effect, don’t do it
• How can you reduce the uncertainty of the result?
• What do you already know? What can you find out?
02 August 2012
©Q:PIT Ltd 2011-2012 75
Keep It Simple
• You can reduce uncertainty significantly if you collect a little information
• Do not fall in the trap of believing it needs to be perfect to measure
