Practices mapped to delivery cadence

Waterfall/agile lifecycle, decouple app dependencies, basic CI, shift

left testing

Reduce batch size (iterative), business engagement, automate testing

Agile development, standardize environment configurations, automated

provisioning, automated deployment to prod, agile program mgmt

Automate deployment and rollback, automated test data, automate

environment management, change impact testing, agile portfolio mgmt

Extreme agile development and Ops practices, automated compliance,

all tests automated, canary releases

Practices are used

sporadically &

inconsistently across

the organization.

Agile practices are

mixed with

prescriptive practices

on the same project.

Focus to increase

efficiency of the

development process

Projects follow the

Agile Manifesto & the

Twelve Principles

Agile practices & are

repeatable in

individual projects or

teams

Generally smaller

co-located teams

Small to medium size

apps

Projects apply Agile at

high maturity across

systems

Large enterprise apps.

Multiple pods of

distributed teams

Supports outsourcing

Organization setup to

support agility across

teams (e.g. SCRUM of

SCRUMS)

Continuous Integration

across pods (staged

builds/tests)

Agile release trains

established for large
