Fabricate

B1

Construct IT solutions based on design principles and standards — for example, multi-tier architecture, coding, and security.

Improvement Planning

Practices-Outcomes-Metrics (POM)

Representative POMs are described for Fabricate at each level of maturity.

1Initial
  • Practice
    Practices are ad hoc and are on a best endeavour basis.
2Basic
  • Practice
    Specify some basic implementation standards within IT (e.g. coding standards, integration standards).
    Outcome
    The quality of the implementation process improves.
    Metric
    # of implementation standards specified.
3Intermediate
  • Practice
    Select and consistently use effective methods for implementing design IT solutions (e.g. extreme programmeming, object-oriented programmeming, etc..).
    Outcome
    Quality of implemented IT solutions is increased.
    Metric
    # of formal methods used in IT solution implementation(s).
4Advanced
  • Practice
    Select and consistently use effective implementation methods (e.g. re-factoring, implementation patterns).
    Outcome
    Quality of implemented IT solution is improved.
    Metric
    # of effective implementation methods used.
5Optimized
  • Practice
    Ensure applied implementation methods are continually reviewed and benchmarked against new methods.
    Outcome
    The methods used are ‘best in class’ resulting in improved implementation practices.
    Metric
    # of new implementation methods reviewed and benchmarked against new methods.
