Flow Engineering - boost velocity, quality & happiness
summary
Claims a repeatable end-to-end process: pick a customer outcome, build a value stream mapping, measure stage times and delays, find a single environment setup hot spot caused by data/devops handoffs, score dependencies and capabilities, prioritize with a simple matrix, then publish a flow roadmap that reduces cycle and lead times and increases deployment frequency. The method uses collaborative whiteboarding, concrete timing numbers, ownership assignments, and short measurable experiments.
