BizDevOps

Next level in your Enterprise Agile Maturity.

As organizations grow in their Agile capabilities, they will have the opportunities of multiple releases a day. That would be a great achievement for any organization. However, the downside will be that some of the business entities, such as marketing, product management, Risk and Operations will feel left out. They will feel that they cannot keep up with the changes, as they don’t have any say in the new functionalities upfront.

Furthermore, it’s difficult to balance speed with staying compliant and mitigating risk. It’s also hard to find a correlation between DevOps metrics and the high-level business targets. When the directions are not aligned and speed is prioritized over security, the results can be disastrous.

This is where BizDevOps can help. In the new way, the product increments can be released in near perfect alignment with organization’s goals as well as aligned with compliance.

BizDevOps integrates business into the DevOps lifecycle, creating a streamlined workflow from business strategy to deployment and maintenance. When done well, it allows companies to execute on a vision faster and more efficiently. Continuous input from business leaders can drastically reduce the amount of rework for a DevOps team.

BizDevOps is only possible thanks to technology that provides real-time software analytics to businesses. Application Performance Management tools give business and DevOps leaders immediate insight on key metrics like application speed, user satisfaction, error rate, and other custom metrics.

The purpose of BizDevOps is to integrate business managers, development teams, and operations into a single, continuous process. Start by formally putting all of these groups in a single team. Eventually it can be even more effective to organize by business process, business service, or business component in larger enterprises.
