Wipro defined a new
framework for release management and followed a stepwise
approach in implementing this.
The Wipro team first concentrated on analyzing the
existing gaps and on documenting an implementation approach
to address the high priority gaps. This activity lasted
for a period of 4 weeks during which the team conducted
20+ facilitation sessions with practitioners. 42 process
gaps were identified across the existing release management
processes. The Wipro team then documented a recommended
approach to address 12 of the most critical gaps.
In the second phase of 16 weeks, the Wipro team implemented
the new processes spanning areas like software configuration
management, build management, software audit & workflow
management, unit testing & code coverage and environment
management. The team transitioned process knowledge to
30+ associates across 5 IS groups. |
