Cost and Quality Best Practices
2009 - DCG's Survey Results
by Mike Harris, DCG President
Last month DCG University conducted an IT metrics and
performance improvement practitioners survey to get a temperature check
on the state of software development measurement activities in the
current economic climate. This short paper summarizes our
interpretation of the 67 responses received. There is strong evidence
that our respondent organizations care about and monitor actual project
costs against estimates. There is also strong evidence that money
is being wasted through weak controls over application code
quality. Read the Executive Summary.
