Growing Development Efficiency
summary
Argues that DPE and DORA metrics are useful but too narrow and presents a concrete Development (Organisation) Efficiency model used at Pensionsmyndigheten tying tools, people and processes together. Describes concrete investments — automated deployment pipelines, faster test suites and reduced build times — and shows how teams used the model to surface dependencies, run a group exercise, and change behaviour (backlog voting, decentralised decisions) to grow impact per krona rather than just speed or output.
