Recently was part of an Proof of Concept for a large enterprise customer where we needed to create a solution to increase the SDLC agility - one of my architect colleagues helped with this Causal Loop Diagram (CLD) an area of System Dynamics. The idea in this picture is to create a top box depicting SDLC governance capablity. The items on the left faucet allow us to add positive attributes to this capablity. The negative aspects to this are time to approve and lack of visiblity on the bottlenecks in the process of approving documents as it may be needed to keep the SDLC process of releasing software on time may dictate. I think that this capablity is enabled by MOSS 2007 out of the box and WSS 3.0 with some custom workflow engineering. The bottom box is all about Team System and how it increases developmental agility to help the overall agility. I thought it was important to add the top box of the often forgotten governance aspect of SDLC that usually slows down the agility. The bottom box shows the factors that help the capablity of agile development. Most of the positive attributes here being core features of our Visual Studion Team System product if you look at from the technology enablers that help this capabilty.
