Abstract

Agile is now a mainstream approach used by developer teams at software organizations. However, many of these organizations still employ traditional governance methods, negatively impacting agile team performance, quality and morale. To address this issue, we applied the Design Science Research Framework to develop Agile governance guidelines by harmonizing CMMI V2.0 and SAFe 5.0. Specifically, we matched CMMI V2.0 governance practices to SAFe 5.0 roles, practices and artefacts. The resulting guidelines were validated, first by means of a survey and then through interviews with process improvement practitioners and agile experts who worked on a fictitious case study. The survey participants, especially those more familiar with SAFe practices, stated that the proposed harmonization was meaningful. Agile experts participating in the case study confirmed that the proposed guidelines were practical and comprehensive, as well as consistent and complete. Pending further empirical validation, these guidelines constitute a crucial step towards Agile governance.

将 CMMI V2.0 与组合 SAFe 5.0 相结合的敏捷管理实践

敏捷目前已成为软件企业开发人员团队使用的主流方法。然而，其中许多组织仍在使用传统的治理方法，这对敏捷团队的绩效、质量和士气产生了负面影响。为了解决这个问题，我们应用了设计科学研究框架，通过协调 CMMI V2.0 和 SAFe 5.0 来制定敏捷治理指南。具体来说，我们将 CMMI V2.0 治理实践与 SAFe 5.0 角色、实践和工件相匹配。我们首先通过调查，然后通过与流程改进实践者和从事虚构案例研究的敏捷专家进行访谈，验证了由此产生的指南。调查参与者，尤其是那些更熟悉 SAFe 实践的人，都表示建议的协调是有意义的。参与案例研究的敏捷专家确认，建议的指南实用、全面、一致且完整。在进一步的经验验证之前，这些指导方针是实现敏捷管理的关键一步。

期刊介绍： The quality of software, well-defined interfaces (hardware and software), the process of digitalisation, and accepted standards in these fields are essential for building and exploiting complex computing, communication, multimedia and measuring systems. Standards can simplify the design and construction of individual hardware and software components and help to ensure satisfactory interworking. Computer Standards & Interfaces is an international journal dealing specifically with these topics. The journal • Provides information about activities and progress on the definition of computer standards, software quality, interfaces and methods, at national, European and international levels • Publishes critical comments on standards and standards activities • Disseminates user''s experiences and case studies in the application and exploitation of established or emerging standards, interfaces and methods • Offers a forum for discussion on actual projects, standards, interfaces and methods by recognised experts • Stimulates relevant research by providing a specialised refereed medium.
