In 2005, I joined Advanced Decisions to establish a Software Process Improvement practice within the company. Well, long story short, I got busy with our core business of software and hardware product development and we never formally developed that practice. The interesting thing is that we seem to provide consulting on Software Process and SDLC as part of many of our engagements anyway.
The most obvious example is our work with start-ups. We typically are engaged to develop their product, but often wind up developing their process, their team, and even on occasion aspects of their business. With our larger clients we develop good quality documentation that’s often used as an example of what to develop in the future. Even with our prospects, we ask them enough questions about how they are developing their products to get them thinking.
It just goes to show, the outcome of a goal or desire may not always look like you expect.
