Common Challenges Without an Agile Lifecycle Management Platform
Companies that operate without a ValueOps approach face these common pain points:
Teams that use disparate software programs are likely working with different datasets. This lack of collaboration results in inefficiencies, as teams may duplicate work or make decisions based on outdated data.
Without collaboration, the goals, strategies, and vision of your business can be misaligned with those of your IT department. As a result, your software systems may not support your business goals, making them more difficult to achieve.
Without an agile lifecycle management platform, teams and leadership can lack an understanding of objectives and transparency in business processes. This lack creates friction between teams that can slow down an initiative's time to market.
Leadership doesn't have a birds-eye view of their business at any given time, so results are hard to track. The limited visibility leads to a lack of awareness of business operations. Deciding which facets to improve or eliminate is more challenging when their results are unknown.
