In today's digital age, driving software value is also an important, and often overlooked, key strategy. Executives, and the corporate board, need to expect the highest level of business value from the software the organization is developing, buying, and selling. In today's digital transformation marketplace, it is imperative that organizations start driving business value from software development initiatives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor many years, the cost of software development challenged organizations with questions such as: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eHow do we allocate software development costs?\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eShould these costs be considered an overhead expense?\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAre we getting the most value possible for our investment? \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eA fundamental problem has been built into these questions - the focus on cost. In almost every other part of the organization, maximizing profit or, in the case of a not-for-profit, maximizing the funds available, provides a clear focus with metrics to determine success or failure. In theory, simply aligning software spending with the maximizing profit goals should be sufficient to avoid any questions about value for money. Unfortunately, this alignment hasn't turned out to be so simple, and the questions persist, particularly at the strategic or application portfolio level. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this book, Michael D.S. Harris describes how a software business value culture--one where all stakeholders, including technology and business--have a clear understanding of the goals and expected business value from software development. The book shows readers how they can transform software development from a cost or profit center to a business value center. Only a culture of software as a value center enables an organization to constantly maximize business value flow through software development. If your organization is starting to ask how it can change software from a cost-center to a value-center, this book is for you.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49825510686993,"sku":"DVDB0058YPGL6VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53428454785297,"sku":"CINB0058YPGL6VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53473615282449,"sku":"CINB0058YPGL6G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/B0058YPGL6.jpg?v=1750905981"},{"product_id":"teen-wolf-season-4-teen-wolf-season-4-3-dvd-dvd-0883904321651","title":"TEEN WOLF: SEASON 4 - TEEN WOLF: SEASON 4 (3 DVD)","description":"Revenge, guide dogs, cats big and small, beleaguered ladies of a certain age, troubled men, a cop with a tarnished heart: meet them here.
