This presentation articulates a key trend I'm seeing in technology delivery. Namely, the need to "right-size the rigor" applied using risk-based methods.

SDLC Transformation-Point of View
1. Capco Point of ViewSDLC Transformation – The Rise of Risk Methods October 2010
2. Introduction Some Useful Definitions Methodology PMLC or EPM RUP SDLC Agile Iterative Solution Delivery Lifecycle Other Infrastructure Solution Delivery Lifecycle From a methodology perspective, a PMLC remains relatively stable over time but accommodates multiple SDLC lifecycles (i.e. project types) within the Execution Phase.
9. Technology teams increasingly require the ability to chose methods based on the needs of the task at hand and emerging techniques are gaining traction (e.g. Agile).Balancing Risk and Efficiency – How to “Right-Size The Rigor” required? BusinessImperative
12. Empower teams with the ability to tailor & filter SDLC based on a Project Profile (risk, complexity, etc.)
13. Align methods & tools with how technology teams actually perform effective work
14. Support on-going management and continuous improvement of methodologiesSo what would a solution designed to address these AREAS look like?

16. Our Point of ViewDynamic Methodology Adaptation (DMAsm) Here’s an example of how one client is evolving toward a more Dynamic SDLC They will have “arrived” after decomposing their methods into re-usable work packages that can shared and re-assembled depending upon the project’s profile. A first step is to optimize what they already have. Starting with a rather large set of static SDLCs. Where to begin? The answer lies in where you are today relative to where you want to be...

31. SDLC Transformation Assessment Approach Capco’s assessment approach starts with broad discovery and converges to a specific improvement action plan based upon a series of findings as compared to leading practices. Improvements and remedies are identified as a series of Findings and Recommendations These are then sequenced into a relevant set of Initiatives and a high-level Business Case A Transformation Roadmap is tailored to your culture and organization based upon our experience
32. SDLC Transformation Assessment Areas and Dimensions The current state maturity assessment is accomplished through review of existing artifacts, in-flight activities, future plans and stakeholder interviews -- then compared against 12 Dimensions grouped into 4 areas. This assessment provides an understanding of the landscape and operating environment in order to provide a baseline from which to identify and prioritize improvement opportunities. Capability Maturity Stage Capco works with you to add or remove Areas and Dimensions as appropriate for your environment
