Plan capacity for centralised permission management against measured growth rather than optimism.
Designing Centralised User Permission Management Systems
A concise, decision-focused programme covering centralised permission management end to end.
Course Overview
Availability targets for centralised permission management are commercial commitments, whatever the engineering team calls them. Systems supporting this aspect of technology and systems delivery fail in ways that are obvious afterwards and invisible before. Field experience suggests that the barrier to better the technology and systems delivery capability is rarely technical. It treats centralised permission management as an operating discipline and equips participants to run it as one. Each session closes with a decision the participant must justify about the wider technology and systems delivery agenda in their own setting. Participants gain a clear basis for measuring what this strand of technology and systems delivery has actually achieved. Ambition around centralised permission management outruns capacity unless the sequencing is deliberate. The programme works equally well for those formalising the wider technology and systems delivery agenda for the first time and those improving an existing approach. The course ends by identifying what the participant will stop doing to make this strand of technology and systems delivery sustainable.
