Olenick & Associates - Deployment Readiness - Reporting Readiness



The Olenick & Associates Deployment Readiness™ Reporting framework is a part of the Deployment Readiness™ methodology that ensures that all testing assets, activities and processes are implemented to cover all functionality related to a software project. The Reporting Readiness provides the stakeholders with fully objective data for risk assessment relating to application software deployments. This approach translates captured project defects, change control and issue information into easily presented metric form.

The metrics are organized by application functionality, technology and software component to allow the observer to isolate behavior and help identify where quality and stability problems may lie. Ultimately the stakeholders can more clearly assess the presence of
deployment risks and enables them to make the best informed judgment for deployment strategies. This approach moves project teams to a method of rigor in readiness reporting that avoids the situation where the stakeholder is making deployment decisions based on unclear metrics or anecdotal information.
