Course Overview
Technical debt in technical change request management is borrowed against future delivery capacity, at compound interest. Security and delivery speed are traded against each other in request management whether or not anyone says so. Participants leave with a method for the technology and systems delivery discipline, not a set of opinions about it. Benchmarking exercises repeatedly place technical change request management among the areas with the widest performance spread. It is designed for mixed groups, so that this area of technology and systems delivery is examined from more than one functional angle. Each session closes with a decision the participant must justify about request management in their own setting. Participants gain a realistic view of what technical change request management costs and what it returns. A common pattern is strong design of request management paired with weak follow-through. It closes by agreeing the smallest change to the wider technology and systems delivery agenda that would make a visible difference.
