2 Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony. -Mohandes K. Gandhi SDP19 2

3 Agenda Current Situation What is Jazz? What is Rational Team Concert? Why Rational Team Concert? Process Enactment Planning & Tracking Collaborative Development SCM, Work Items, Build Project Health & Transparency Driving Business Differentiation *Field Marshal Helmuth Graf von Moltke SDP19 3

4 Given the rise of distributed teams and the pace of technology change, governing software development cycles has never been more difficult What we re hearing 2/3 of our projects span multiple business units Our architecture needs to be significantly more scalable and flexible We have a process but our tools don t enforce it. It s not serving it s purpose. On time delivery of software is paramount as it is a risk to our business profitability.? We have to go where the best talent is, but we have IP and compliance realities What we re seeing Increasingly diverse and cross organizational project teams with multiple product architectures Interest in managing software as an asset using flexible, governed software delivery models Software becoming more critical to the operation and on-time delivery of new products Open, customizable, framework enabling new business models SDP19 4

5 Organizations are responding by going agile, but most lack the infrastructure to succeed Agile: An iterative and incremental (evolutionary) approach performed in a highly collaborative manner with just the right amount of ceremony to produce high quality software in a cost effective and timely manner which meets the changing needs of its stakeholders. Have you adopted any Agile techniques? No 33% Yes 69% Core principles Fits just right process Continuous testing and validation Consistent team collaboration Rapid response to change Ongoing customer involvement Frequent delivery of working software Agile product success rates(%) 214 co-located, 210 near, 129 far All Co-Located Near Located Far Located Source: Scott Ambler Agile Adoption Rate Survey of over 4200 Dr. Dobb s subscribers, February SDP19 5

6 While distributed teams were designed to enhance business agility, organizational, geographical, and technical silos can make things worse Only 37% of stakeholders are satisfied with the speed of internal application development... Only 42% are satisfied with the quality. 50% of outsourced projects are expected to underperform. Silos of people, process, and projects Geographic Barriers Poor communication Language, culture and time differences Process gaps resulting in errors and rework High degree of friction across teams Organizational Barriers Lack of meaningful stakeholder input Poor LOB oversight Weak project governance Missed opportunities to leverage domain expertise Infrastructure Barriers Incompatible tools and repositories Unreliable access to common artifacts Lengthy project and team member on-boarding Brittle and inflexible tooling integrations Source: Forrester, Gartner SDP19 6

7 Stakeholders want a solution that can transform software development by getting business and technology to work in harmony as one team Dynamic integration of people, process, and projects across the software lifecycle Collaborate in Context Enable team transparency a common understanding of who, what, when, why Build team cohesion chats, wikis, information in context Automate hand-offs so nothing falls through the cracks Right-size Governance Automate individual and team workflow through dynamic processes Automate data collection no administrative overhead Real time reporting and alerts reduces project risk Day One Productivity Dynamic provisioning of projects and teams Real-time release/iteration planning and workload balancing Unify teams using a variety of clients Open and extensible architecture Leverage IBM, partner and open source technologies SDP19 7

19 Agenda Why Rational Team Concert? Process Enactment Planning & Task Tracking Planning is everything. Plans are nothing. * Collaborative Development SCM, Work Items, Build Project Health & Transparency Driving Business Differentiation *Field Marshal Helmuth Graf von Moltke SDP19 19

20 Example: Rational Team Concert and SCRUM process Product Backlog Plan Taskboards show task progress Progress rolls up into plans (sprint, product backlog) Sprint plan or Iteration Plan also shows backlog priority SDP19 20

21 Backlog Plan Mode Easily rank work items to define priority Ideal for managing SCRUM backlog Support coarse & fine grained prioritization Ranking is reflected in all planning views, e.g. iteration plans and release plans Drag and drop work items to rank them relative to others. SDP19 21

22 Iteration Sprint Planning Understand how well you are progressing against your targets in real-time Plan and execute on iterations while managing load Drag-and-drop work items to change owners/create child parent relationships SDP19 22

23 Taskboards track Work in Progress Accelerate stand-up meetings, increased transparency See the work in progress or completed Show stories linked to a set of associated tasks and their status Drag and drop work items to change their state. SDP19 23

24 Agenda Why Rational Team Concert? Process Enactment Planning & Tracking Collaborative Development Communication translates to success SCM, Work Items, Build Project Health & Transparency Driving Business Differentiation SDP19 24

25 In-context collaboration Team Central Shows what is happening on project News & events Build status What s being worked on Changes Configurable (RSS feeds) - New kinds of information easily added Personalizable - Each team member can tailor to their needs Team Awareness Shows team members and their online status Shows what they are working on SDP19 25

26 Agenda Why Rational Team Concert? Process Enactment Planning & Tracking Collaborative Development SCM, Work Items, Build No brittle integrations to manage Project Health & Transparency Driving Business Differentiation SDP19 26

27 Agile Practice Coverage Touches Many Functions Incremental Design Continuous Integration Test Driven Development Iteration/Sprints Backlog Learn and Adapt SCM Work Items Build Dashboard Process...we currently use a mix of Subversion, Atlassian JIRA and the Hudson continuous build tool, and various extensions that provide some integration between these products. As you might imagine, this causes problems as these tools are not as sophisticated as RTC, and require a careful migration strategy to keep the (limited) integrations working over time. Peter Hendricks Info Support Netherlands SDP19 27

28 SCM is stream and component based Easily suspend and resume work Work in parallel using streams to control sharing Easily add or remove change sets (tasks) from a stream SDP19 28

29 Work items capture traceability & effort Subscribe to work items you're interested in Predefined, custom and personal queries SCRUM built in artifact types Understands and persists work items' relationship to SCM and build artifacts Integrated discussion threads & chat sessions Query results SDP19 29

30 Builds Extensible Continuous Integration Run personal builds to check your changes before sharing them with the team Even reconstruct a work space from a failed build! Create build servers Identify work items and change sets that went into the build Historical view of the build queue with status SDP19 30

31 SDP19 31

32 Agenda Why Rational Team Concert? Process Enactment Planning & Tracking Collaborative Development Driving Business Differentiation SCM, Work Items, Build Project Health & Transparency Knowing what is going on without having to ask SDP19 32

33 Transparency Transparency in planning available to all live updated Transparency in development automatic linking build results/reports dashboard Transparency in process team structure team roles team rules SDP19 33

34 Customized Dashboards user, team, entire project Includes 75 out of the box reporting templates in RTC 2.0 Trending by project or by individual team Burndown charts All stories in current sprint SDP19 34
