Ep. 55: Quality Quote

Definitely, Maybe Agile

Send us a text

This week Peter and Dave will deconstruct a quote from Tom DeMarco. "Quality takes time and reduces the quantity, so it makes you, in a sense, less efficient. The organization that optimizes efficiency recognizes quality as its enemy. That's why many corporate quality programs are actually quality reduction programs in disguise."

This week's takeaways:

  • Technology is cheap today, but the impact is expensive. 
  • Organizations that test at the end reinforce the loop. 
  • We now have more integration abilities between systems.
