Statements: Our software doesn’t allow us to change
Change is a lot of work;
Changes always impact multiple apps

Mendix Accelerates the Software Lifecycle
- 1. Mendix Accelerates the Software Development Life Cycle
- 2. Governance: Monitor Quality during operation Test: automatically check for Consistency and Test Agile Project CollaborationCentralized App Management Develop: convert ideas to app logic Ideate: new approach to solve problemsControl: Manage and govern centrally Accelerate every step of your app journey Deploy: to any Cloud or on-premises

Methodology Waterfall Upfront Requirements & Planning Detailed Documentation Fixed goal Lean Eliminate waste Amplify learning Decide as late as possible Deliver as fast as possible Empower the team “Scrum-fall” “Water-scrum” No upfront design documents Detailed Project Planning Detailed Progress Reports Agile / Scrum / Kanban Individuals & Interaction over process & tools Working software over documentation Customer collaboration over firm contracts Responding to change over following a plan Majority of the Organizations Statements: We’re Agile, ‘Trying’ scrum Questions: How do you work with the Business; How do you plan & budget for projects. Differentiator: Mendix is designed for an Agile/Lean organization Mendix Budget/Team/Reporting on individual Project Ongoing Budget/Team/Reports for Improvements Value-Stream Driven Budget Long-lived (scrum-)teams Scrum-teams per Value-Stream Upfront planning Detailed Project Planning & Reports

Editor's Notes
- #6: All organizations want to be fast, going through all steps and starting the next iteration is what everybody is looking for
- #7: Most of the time we talk about biz-IT collaboration -> methodology To get completely agile/fast there are different things you need to improve. Simplified into 5 major categories, based on the Mendix Vision. Orgs have different maturity and focus on these areas, and we can help in all 5.
- #23: DevOps is a culture shift aimed to ‘full organizational Agility’ everything and everybody should be agile. DevOps needs CICD and needs Agile but not the other way around.
- #26: Most of the time we talk about biz-IT collaboration -> methodology To get completely agile/fast there are different things you need to improve. Simplified into 5 major categories, based on the Mendix Vision. Orgs have different maturity and focus on these areas, and we can help in all 5.
- #27: Note: 2 levenscycli. Hele korte tussen idea en dev. Protot, Daarna ontstaat langere lifecycle naar mvp, live Samenwerking, ideean, feedback op ideeen. Mobile app, web portal. Koppelt aan requirements. Compliance , audittrail. Wie ideee Wie approved Wie gebouwd Wie getest Wanneer gebundeld Wanneer gereleased Wanneer, waar gedeployd Agile werken: Hoe meer business betrekt, hoe meer feedback je krijgt. Ontdubbelen. Feedback op freedback. Ontw op basis van modelellen. Q controle: functioneel testen (record, playback). Consistency checks model. Hoger nivo mode. Is meer contrilesn. Hoe onderhoudbaarheud Deploy op alle grote platformen.
