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
ProjectExpert templates for different sizes and paths…
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.
