Reining in Technical Debt

Do you really govern the software development process in your IT organization or do its uncertainty and unpredictability leave you, your internal customers and your company's customers aghast? Do you manage to bake in quality in every build? Can you assess the quality of your software in a way that quantifies the risk? Once you watch the Cutter Consortium Reining in Technical Debt on-demand webinar, with Cutter Senior Consultant John Heintz and Israel Gat, you will understand how the combination of recent developments in software engineering and in software governance enable you to tie quality, cost, and value together to form a simple and effective governance framework for software.

The primary goals of this Reining in Technical Debt webinar are to give you a preliminary understanding how quality can be assessed through technical debt techniques, to familiarize you with state of the art tools for measuring technical debt and to demonstrate how value delivery is affected when the technical debt is not "paid back" promptly. Israel and John will also introduce you to a governance framework that ensures you can rigorously manage your software development process from a business perspective. This governance framework reduces a large number of complex technical considerations to a common denominator that is easily understood by both technical and non-technical people — dollars.
