Quality Driven Software Delivery: Achieving Greater Value and Performance from Software and Systems Investments - Part 1 Talk to us on Tuesday, November 3, 2009 at 10:00 AM EDT      No need to travel, just spend time with us to learn how modern software delivery teams enable quality management throughout the lifecycle.         Quality software delivery has never been more critical to businesses; in fact, it's critical to business survival. In today's economy, CIOs need to delicately balance the drive toward business transformation with the management of business risk. Requirements change often, projects fall behind schedule, costs are scrutinized, but quality must improve or businesses fold. This seemingly impossible task is forcing software delivery teams to think outside the box, examine new development approaches and challenge historically dominant methods. In this seminar we'll explore how modern software delivery teams enable quality management throughout the lifecycle, detecting defects early and in the process reducing cost and improving credibility. We'll show how constant communication via a common and well-understood set of requirements-and quick responses to changes in those requirements-can infuse quality into software development right from the start. Finally, we'll explore the role of diligent governance of the build and test execution processes to correct courses and allocate resources can help organizations become more flexible, address compliance regulations, react faster to changing marketplace conditions and, ultimately, drive business growth. In this unforgiving economy, success or failure often depends on one thing: whose product has the highest quality. Register today!
