The Release Problem Statement
Release management, or more broadly “Enterprise Release Management”, is a leading challenge for IT organizations and departments. Ineffective Release management leads to an array of issues, including:
- Poor transparency of “Organisational Change” & associated “Value”
- Weak coordination across business units, projects, teams & tribes
- Manual, slow and untimely IT environment service operations.
- Reliance on de-centralized tooling (Spreadsheets, PowerPoints & Email)
- Slow and Untimely Executive Reporting limiting management decision making
- Poor information capture limiting measurement and improvement
- Manual and Error Prone Deployment and Implementation activities
This all translates to impact on quality, IT overspends, project delays & consequently slow delivery of change to your customers.
