An analysis of published Principles for Managing and Standardizing AI, where about 10 AI Qualitieslike Safety and Transparency are shown to be quantifiable. This is prelude to rational thinking about the entire subject.
GilbFest Talk June 25 2019
Slides for GilbFest Lightning Presentation. Based on exploratory work Idid analyzing the Agile Manifesto, and converting the ideas into quantified values and potential estimates of the effectiveness of the Principles, using Impact Tables.
These pptx slides made end 2018, detail the written admission by Ohno at Toyota that he intentionally gave 'fake news' (misled by omission of the true methods) to American visitors, who later went to coin the term, and teach 'Lean Methods'. It can serve as a serious warning to all professionals that large successful corporations, not just Toyota, are not always going to reveal the truth, potentially to competitors, about how they really succeed. There are too many poor methods being spread with the 'Google/XYZ Uses it ' therefore' it must be good', There are too many uncritical gullible people who serious believe this is a fact, and are uneducated so they cannot ask for better evidence or measurements to indicate the effectiveness and costs of a method. This set of slides is integrated with my analysis of QFD (also from Toyota) which I thought was so bad constructed that I long suspected it was fake news; and that show I came to learn of Toyotas admitted false information about Lean. Lean principles (early, prevent etc) are good ideas. But Toyota was hiding its real secrets: we need to beware.

Common Agile methods intend to deliver benefits and value, but they are not equipped to do so in practice. You have to add to an agile framework, like Scrum, a number of tools.
Direct Quantification of all benefits, so they are unambiguous clear and trackable in agile delivery steps. Much better stakeholder analysis. A method to estimate the ‘benefit power’ of all architecture and design strategies. A method for decomposing big strategies into smaller benefit deliverable strategies. A method for dynamic prioritisation of delivery steps based on value for resources wrt risks.

A systematic counter argument against the definitions of wicked problems. They only seem wicked if you do not have the right conceptual tools, like Planguage, to enable you to see things more clearly. Written for GilbFest 2016 and presented to Dave Snowdon there who said, to my surprise, he agreed,

The methods in a nutshell are; quantify all critical stakeholder values, as your main requirements. And, use Dynamic Design to Cost, like IBM did in Cleanroom projects, to be ‘agile' in correcting projects on a bad path.

I think the ‘Wicked Problem” ideas are more misleading than useful.

There are a wide variety of methods for handling large and complicated systems in reasonable ways, in addition to the ones I have presented [5 is constructive], here and in my books.

Most intelligent professionals that I encounter, do not seem trained in these methods, and are not aware of the many tools they can use to tackle complicated (‘Wicked’) systems.

I think we need to focus our attention on mastering a variety of methods for delivering stakeholder value. We are nowhere near good enough, with extremely high failure rates. Failure rates which should shame any professionals with responsibility and pride.

The conditions telling us that we are good enough, or much better are:

more than 95% of our projects result in the value improvements we have promised, on time and within budget. We already have the knowledge to do that. Do you ? [F1]
no excuses about ‘Wicked Problems’

1. Aligning IT with business.

The used of Value Decision Tables for numerically aligning IT with the business
The alignment with multiple stakeholders in and related to the business
2. Benefit/value ROI from IT / data-information - maximising / demonstrating /realisation (related to IT governance)

Using the Value Decision Tables to bring out the multiple values of strategies with respect to their multiple costs
Using Value Decision Tables to track value delivery numerically in project management
3. Strategy - integration of IT strategy with business strategy

How to estimate the effectiveness of any class of strategy or IT Architecture with multiple objectives of any level of responsibility
How to understand the riskiness and credibility of any estimates of strategy effectiveness and costs
4. IT governance: investment decisions, business case, and prioritisation etc.: See benefits/value (2) above.

Dynamic Prioritisation of investments and strategies depending on changing objectives and resources
Understanding and managing risks with decisions, in a complex culture of technology, business and international considerations
5. Budget/cost/funding: reduction, justifying, management (with or without recession).

Why conventional IT estimation of project costs and duration cannot actually work satisfactorily
Unconventional estimation. Dynamic design to cost. A process for delivering to arbitrary and inconvenient deadlines and budgets; even surprisingly changing resource constraints: and still apparently delivering planned quantified stakeholder value goals, on time, under budget - and even surprisingly early in practice

These slides tell the story of my Consultancy case of work for several years at International Computers Limited, a 20,000 person mainframe and mid size and desktop computer supplier, with application software, operating systems etc.

The time is early 80s, and the Managing Director Robb Wimot has invited me to advise him on getting into profitability.

My advice was for management to quantify their softer goals too (like 'Viability'). They did. They went into profit for the next 14 years

ICL went though mergers (as a profitable company) and is today known as Fujitsu.

SLIDES. How we rapidly created faster, more user-friendly, and more productive software products for a competitive multi-national market.

Evolutionary development (Evo) focuses on early delivery of high value to stakeholders, and on obtaining and utilizing feedback from stakeholders. This paper describes from a project manager’s viewpoint, the positive experiences that one organization rapidly achieved on switching from using the Waterfall method to Evo. Major benefit came from paying greater attention to the quality requirements as opposed to the previous practice of concentrating solely on the required functionality.

Reduction of technical debt is best accomplished by systematic engineering, and iterative reduction. Engineering means setting several quantified quality requirements like Maintainability, Testability,Portability. Then empowering your team to find technical solutions, implement them, and measure progress. Confirmit in Oslo pioneered this in 2005, as a Green Week once a month.

Lean Quality Assurance: 7 better ways to get quality than testing
1. Target audience: people who are concerned with improving all quality aspects of products and services, while reducing the costs of testing and older forms of QC . Typical job titles are
Test managers, QA and QC people. The approach is upstream and 'design quality in', so people interested in designing qualities into products will enjoy this too.
2. Max size: 20
3. Instructor: Tom Gilb and Kai Gilb

Detail on Lean QA

• THE PROBLEM: testing costs too much, but is in fact ineffective. There are many proven methods for ensuring much better qualities, much sooner. But testers cannot be held responsible for deploying them. This is a CIO, CTO, QA-manager responsibility.
 Our ´lean´ methods operate upstream, up front, pro-active, and with rapid learning.

 OUR SOLUTION: We present a powerful selection of methods that can help you help to improve your software qualities dramatically, at low cost. All are freely adoptable. All can be tailored to your development environment immediately. All of them give measurable improvements.
 Many real stakeholders have to be considered in QA. Not just the ‘user’ and ‘customer’ or the ‘tester’.
 You can expect dozens of simple, but deep, and true, nuggets of real practical wisdom – from long experience and first hand practice.
 You will not get re-iteration of conventional wisdom. You will get deep principles and methods that really work.
 You will get the benefit of our decades of real experience internationally at IBM, HP, Boeing, Citigroup, JP Morgan, Credit Suisse, Siemens, Ericsson, Nokia, Philips, Rolls Royce, Intel and other top corporations.
 This course is fact-based, on real life cases, of the lecturers, and others.
Lean Spec QC: powerful peer review technology made simple.
Don’t ‘clean up’ bad work. Measure how bad it is, and motivate people to really follow IT standards

Duration: 1 Day.

Highlights:
this course teaches a breakthrough set of ideas about review technology. It focuses on making sure that defined standards are really learned and followed in practice. It does so by a simple one hour sample measure of any class of technical specification (requirements, design source code) to measure the major defect level. It uses this information to reject bad work and to motivate people to learn to normally perform to the agreed ‘exit level’ of following standards. This method was invented by Gilbs, and is currently working in pilot multinationals. It is based on over three decades of deep successful involvement with peer review technology in several industries by the teachers.

About:
This course is about peer reviews at two levels. Are specifications well written, and are they the right stuff for the job? The breakthrough idea is to use sampling to review, thus reducing costs radically, from conventional inspections and reviews. The second breakthrough idea is to not waste time fixing bad work, but instead to catch it early, and motivate people to actually produce good work consistently.
“Architecture Engineering Tools, a quantified multidimensional approach to IT architecture and design.”

Intended for: People who have some design or architecture practice and responsibility today, and who want some new and powerful tools for designing. This is the beginning of a personal study leading to competence as IT Design Engineer, or IT Architectural Engineer.

Background: Most IT design and IT Architecture is currently based on non-engineering paradigms. There is almost total absence of quantified requirements for performance, qualities and costs, as a design basis. There is as good as no practice of estimation and measurement of the multiple impacts of a design or architecture on these requirements. In short, design is practiced in an intuitive manner. Nice words but no justification or responsibility. This is highly unprofessional and is damaging to our community. This course will expose, and make freely available, the set of tools necessary to practicing real IT Design/Architecture Engineeering.
How to communicate your organisation’s ‘real’ requirements, and your customer’s most critical improvement requirements, in an unambiguous, clear, measurable, and testable way.

The intent of Agile has always been to focus on delivering value to our stakeholders.
But,
I think we need to be a lot more specific about what this means,
because
some people think it means delivering bug free code to a user or customer,
even if the stakehoder gets no real value!

Course Title:
• Value Scrum: Advanced Front End for Scrum, to focus on delivering quantified value streams to the organization’s stakeholders.
Course Introduction:
• THE PROBLEM: Scrum (and other Agile variations) has a weakness as presently practiced: it is too focussed on ‘User Stories’ and ‘Customers’. This is OK for smaller systems and projects. But it is not acceptable for larger and more-critical projects. ‘User Stories’ are a very poor reflection of the main critical expected value-improvements of a system. The ‘customer’ (or even ‘user’) is a poor reflection of the large number (20 to 40) interesting stakeholders in non-trivial systems.
• OUR SOLUTION: we will teach you to build a ‘front end’ to the Scrum, feeding into the Scrum Product Owner (PO). This Scrum front end will define three critical items:
• (1) The business and organizational improvement needs, (2) the stakeholder needs, (3) the system performance and quality needs. From these three related levels of business value, the PO and the technical design function in the development team can derive the necessary design. This design will impact the software system quality, which will impact the stakeholder needs, which will impact the business needs. All quantified, so non technical management can participate.
• Conventional Scrum does none of this, and is at high risk of failing to deliver expected value – which is a primary agile ideal! Scrum is a core process only – not complete, and Scrum users are always expected to supplement with any needed additional processes. This is one option.

• THE PROBLEM: testing costs too much, but is in fact ineffective. There are many proven methods for ensuring much better qualities, much sooner. But testers cannot be held responsible for deploying them. This is a CIO, CTO, QA-manager responsibility.
• Our ´lean´ methods operate upstream, up front, pro-active, and with rapid learning.
• OUR SOLUTION: We present a powerful selection of methods that can help you help to improve your software qualities dramatically, at low cost. All are freely adoptable. All can be tailored to your development environment immediately. All of them give measurable improvements.
• Many real stakeholders have to be considered in QA. Not just the ‘user’ and ‘customer’ or the ´tester.

Main theme, it is the quantified top level and 'critical' objectives of a project that must be clear, quantified, trackable. This is a management responsibility that hardly any managers take responsibility for today - thus we get corresponding project failure.

Tom Gilb presentation at Culture Change Seminar 23 June 2009
Purpose of this document/manifesto:

Quality Assurance (QA) in software has in fact degenerated into testing alone, on a large scale. Software/IT management has ignorantly allowed this to happen, and it is time for a wakeup call. Of course many parts of the industry have been well-aware of more cost-effective ways of delivering required quality in practice, but this has in fact been largely ignored; while granting very large resources to testing alone (as opposed to smarter upstream engineering practices, based on design, prevention and upstream inspections).

Tom Gilb wrote this in response to a dialogue with my friend Mike Smith, of Testing Solutions Group, London. He seemed to believe we need to do things different in testing. This is my response.
