Development Approach
While many developers prefer to "just do it", we provide the minimal guidance it takes to "just do it right the first time". Starting with the classic waterfall life cycle, developers can add concurrency, iteration and staging as their ability to manage complex development matures.

Multiple Paths
Build or Buy? Accelerate it or Staff it Thin? THE Guide provides a process for selecting your development path, and positions you to press for more cost-effective options.

Need Better Estimates?
THE Guide not only helps you produce better project estimates, it positions you to manage the factors, or assumptions, that most affect your actual outcomes.

Top it all off with tools such as The 20 Questions, and Plan By Example's

The Online Guide (TOG)

THE Guide reference materials are published in web-based format. Rather than killing trees, we chose to make online access the format for THE Guide.

We designed The Online Guide as a Project Management Office Portal or Intranet. This also gives you access when away from the office. You can still print activity and reference pages for assignment, using your web browser.

This move allows us to add never-before-available information, such as the descriptions for the Medium Project Guide, and other great features, without adding multiple binders to your desktop.

THE Guide has always been a highly scalable "lean without mean" process; now it is even more useful, as your teams use it online.
