ABOUT
Derisk, Unclog, and Scale Your Business

We Know the Challenges of Software Delivery
More agile methodologies were supposed to improve software project delivery outcomes, but recently, unsuccessful software projects totaled $260B of losses in a single year.
Reasons for these failures are clear:
39%: poor requirements gathering
57%: inadequate planning and lack of communication
32%: scope creep, unclear objectives and outcomes
37%: lack of partnership with the business
Proper leadership of technical teams and alignment with the business help drive the possibilities of these failures down to nothing.
