We are excited to announce the launch of our new webinar series, Made Tech Talks. During this series, we aim to provide helpful, accessible information to empower digital leaders to improve software delivery in the public sector.
Don’t estimate without evidence
In software, estimating is controversial. In this post, we’ll look at how to measure the quality of your estimates, and what to do when it doesn’t stack up.
Being an Introvert in an Agile working environment
Agile working environments often include open plan offices, close-knit teams and lots of impromptu discussions. Encouraging collaboration both between developers and with other business people is a great way to aid producing valuable software.
Legacy transformation is a team sport
Legacy transformation is a team sport because it’s hard, expensive and can take a long time, so you need to have everyone ready to push in the same direction from the start.
Delivery doesn’t finish in production
Our delivery teams at Made Tech fully embrace the devops culture and mindset, which means that we take on many more responsibilities across the software development lifecycle than just writing code.
Defining outcomes as a product team
How defining outcomes can help a product team collaboratively discover, identify, collate and rank what they should do and enable them to perform effectively and happily to ensure outputs are tied to those outcomes.
Prioritising your application transformation
After you have mapped your application ecosystem as best as you can, you should begin work on prioritising which applications to modernise first.
Mapping your organisation and applications in legacy transformation
Mapping your organisation and applications is crucial because it enables you to decide which application to prioritise and which transformation strategy to adopt.
The world beyond the Academy ?
Several engineers, including myself, joined Made Tech via the Academy. It’s a 12-week programme that the company offers to teach passionate learners the best software engineering practices in the industry.
How financing affects legacy application transformation
Cost is one of the most important drivers of legacy transformation and is usually the catalyst for a much wider discussion about how to finance such projects.
