Chapter 2. Anatomy of an Enterprise Software Delivery Project
Chapter Summary
I present an example of a typical enterprise software delivery project. I examine its key characteristics and analyze specific areas for improvement. I explore both the enterprise-level and project-level issues within this specific example, and conclude the following:
