Dimensional Planning
Abstract
Dimensional Planning is a technique that introduces depth as an extra dimension to the classical iron triangle of time, scope and resources. Dimensional planning intensifies iterative development, a cornerstone of Agile Software Development. This intensified iterative development results in extra feedback loops and more adaptability, that in turn results in shorter time to market and building what's needed, not what was originally conceived. Adapting to change becomes manageable with Dimensional Planning.
Topics Covered:
- The difference between iterative and incremental development
- Dirt, cobblestone and asphalt road as a metaphor for the depth dimension
- Applied at the feature (depths )and feature group (alternate futures) level
- Functional and non-functional dimensions
- Demonstrate the economical benefits (Lean and Theory of Constraints)
- In combination with Scrum and Kanban/Pull (and even as a stepping stone from waterfall to agile)
