Understanding Product Lines as Systems
and
Why Velocity is the Most Important Performance Indicator
Exploring the Implications of Systems and Velocity on Your Product Line and Practices
Adept customizes this workshop specific to your company and your products. And we deliver the workshop in the most flexible approach possible.
Confidentiality
To make the workshop impactful, we ask to work under confidentiality with a non-disclosure agreement (your NDA, not ours.) The NDA allows Adept experts to take part in communications on topics proprietary to your company.
Adept starts work by interviewing six product line contributors and likely workshop participants. At your request, we are happy to add more interviews. Adept also augments its learning by reviewing and studying documents about the organization, the product line, and the approaches product line contributors use. And before customizing workshop deliverables, Adept confirms our findings with the company-assigned workshop liaison.
Tailoring the Workshop
Customizing and tailoring workshop deliverables then take place over several days. We ask participants to spend thirty minutes reviewing preparatory materials shared a few days before the workshop delivery in preparation for the workshop. These materials are in the form of short videos, articles, and blogs.
Adept shares workshop materials with participants before the workshop.
Delivering the Workshop
Adept delivers the workshop as either a single four-to-five-hour session or two separate two-to-three-hour sessions. The delivery may take place with your preferred online meeting service or Adept’s meeting service. Recording is allowed.
Adept maintains chat/Q&A/discussion monitoring throughout delivery. Such monitoring helps augment the frequent discussions encouraged through delivery.
Superb Follow-through
After the workshop, Adept surveys the participants to understand their takeaways and how these may influence greater performance by your product line. We compile the results and present a summary to the product line team in a one-hour web meeting that is packed with sharing insights, questions, and answers. This web meeting takes place roughly two weeks after the workshop.
This follow-through meeting shifts the orientation from understanding Product Line as Systems to gaining benefit from this new knowledge.
Pricing of the workshop is based on product line size and complexity of deliverables.
