International Development Standard Ensures Delivery of Targeted Systems and Applications, On-Time and On-Budget
Xansa today announced that its Business Solutions Group has standardized on DSDM (Dynamic Systems Development Method), a globally proven framework for systems and applications development. Using the DSDM standard, Xansa survey has shown that companies have received a 200+% return on investment. The DSDM framework provides on-time, on-budget delivery of IT systems and applications for a number of leading clients worldwide, including BT (see press release, June 5, 2002).
A Xansa-commissioned study to compare the productivity of projects using traditional and DSDM development techniques was conducted over a seven-year period (1994 through 2001). The study highlighted percentage increases in productivity for an organization using DSDM and more traditional approaches. The following graph summarizes the results of the survey showing annual percentage increases in productivity. On average, over the course of the study, productivity was 202% higher using DSDM.
