The simplest way to measure the delivered work of the developers is if the version control commit description is written in a way that it can be copied straight into the timesheet system by the developer.

From a planning and future reference perspective the project manager and software architect can learn how long it takes to implement a certain feature by looking at the metrics. It is recommended to connect the version control system with the timesheet entries for measurability.

Reviewing the developers code frequently is a key component to ensure the project moves forward at the desired pace and quality. Jira with Tempo or any other issue tracking system integrated with a timesheet system.Ĭonnect Version control and Timesheet entries for measurability.Slack for communication across the development team.In order to ensure the weekly sprints or Kanban board items are delivered, short daily meetings with the developers are recommended.ĭiscussing the finished and upcoming daily tasks while reviewing the code improves the delivery efficiency dramatically. At the same time there are many alternatives such as Azure Boards, Trello, SmartSheet etc. Once the MVP is done and the product is mature enough then moving onto a Kanban board helps visualise and manage advanced features, improvements and backlog tasks. What we found over the years is that the most reliable way to deliver projects is to start with a Scrum based approach where the MVP version gets done by delivering features in weekly sprints. Based on the project the development should follow a plan which is done either on a Scrum or Kanban board.

The software product needs to be broken down to building blocks / features as deliverables.

Word processor for specification documentsĪdopt Scrum, Kanban or a hybrid approach based on your needs.

Recommended tools based on our experience: The plan will very likely change as the project progresses, but that is expected and happens in most cases. In conclusion, having a specification document and a timeline is absolutely necessary in order to avoid unexpected circumstances or discoveries during delivery. Ideally, the changes and its effects are confirmed between the client, the software architect and the project manager and the updated documents are communicated across the team. It is almost certain that both the specification and the roadmap will change during development due to reasons such as technology limitation, user acceptance test results, third party library or API changes etc. Once the specification is done a roadmap needs to be created with the major milestones and alpha / beta / production release dates. All front end and back end features need to be surveyed and confirmed by the client, the software architect and the project manager. Plan and Review your Development Roadmap FrequentlyĮnsuring the project gets done on time and on budget the software product needs a detailed UI/UX design and a specification document. By applying the methods below your project delivery will have a better chance to succeed. Delivering a software development project on time and on budget is a complex task which requires constant reviews and iterations at a management level.
