What i've been up to


So the agile journey has taken a back step. Rather than saying this is what agile is, i'm hoping that some persistence over time and explanation that we are implementing these practices in the hope that we become agile.

How?

We are trying to change the way development is done at our company by taking on a highly visible internal service we provide, the forms system. !

Why are we doing this? Why not use something off the shelf? We currently have Adobe Forms. It's old. We just bought Sharepoint. No one internally knows how to use it.

My boss is giving me a very large amount of rope with this.

Our dev team that focuses on c#/.net/asp/mvc/wcf/nservicebus, our web team that focuses on our intranet & internet sites, internal styling discussions with our marketing team, our analysts who can focus on the busi;.ness requirements and then some other internal IT people doing some project management(upper management wrangling). Guess what that sounds like? It sounds like a great cross functional team.

By our powers combined..... :) Upper management has wanted us to all work on something together. This is our great chance to actually do it.

So how can we create a form system. next post.
