It can be easy to fixate on tracking any number of metrics throughout the software delivery process, from story points delivered, to commits per project, to build success rate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, while there\u2019s value in monitoring the performance of specific activities like these, it\u2019s essential to prioritize the outcome of your work\u2014not just steps within the process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
That\u2019s where Flow Metrics<\/a> come into play. As part of Planview CTO Dr. Mik Kersten’s Flow Framework<\/a>, these metrics allow teams to measure their rate of business value delivery, improve their processes, and ultimately deliver greater value on a continual basis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Especially when starting out, it can take a while to understand and fully reap the benefits of Flow Metrics. Dominica DeGrandis, Principal Flow Advisor at Planview, is well-versed in working with teams to effect significant improvements as quickly as possible using Flow Metrics. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
