Scaling your software product after its initial successes requires experience and discipline. We help you drive the efficiency and effectiveness of your solution to full maturity.
Our Site Reliability Engineering Team (SRE) guarantees availability and provides early warnings and insights as volumes grow. Releasing updates in a high quality and predictable manner builds trust with your customers and enables you to exceed their expectations and beat the competition.
When is the right time to move into the Product Maturity phase?
This can vary from project to project, but a key indicator is the predictability of the software development team. Once the process of delivering new features is entrenched in the team and the delivery of new features team is predictable, it is time to move into the Product Maturity phase. All the guard rails should be in place to support more juniors on the team. The number of technical decisions should have started tapering off, the complexity is lowering along along with the number of support issues.
What steps are involved in getting to product maturity?
Additional software development or scale teams can be formed to work alongside the Market Ready Product team to increase the overall software delivery output. These additional software development teams follow the same process as the Market Ready Product team to design, develop and release additional features in parallel. During this phase, additional planning activities take place to co-ordinate the delivery efforts across multiple software development teams. These activities can include Scrum-of-scrums (SoS) and Big Room Planning (BRP) ceremonies in-line with the Scaled-Agile-Framework (SAFE).
Who’s involved in the Product Maturity phase
All software development teams work closely with their respective Product Owners, but leverage the broader Product Team, any subject matter experts and technical contacts that may be needed. The overall effort is led by the Market Ready Product Delivery Manager, who is your key point of contact with us and co-ordinates activities across all the teams. Each team is led by an Agile Project Manager who is always closely supported by a Development Lead and Business/Product Analyst. Developers and SDET are added according to the required technology stack with a balance of senior and junior experience levels as maturity increases.
