TPFKB Vision

The TPFKB is an iterative software development process that is minimal, complete, and extensible.

• The process is minimal in that only fundamental content is included
• The process is complete in that it can be manifested as an entire process to build a system
• The process is extensible in that it can be used as a foundation on which process content can be added or tailored as needed

TPFKB  takes an agile approach to development valuing team collaboration and benefits to the stakeholders over unproductive deliverables and formality. The process provides this progressive approach to building systems within a proven, structured lifecycle.

TPFKB Fundamental Concepts

It's the people!	Focus on the collaboration within a development team including the product stakeholders to maximize results
Do it again, and again, and ...	Application of an iterative lifecycle that mitigates risk early and often, and shows results early and often
Know what they really want.	Management of requirements in a form that represents stakeholder value and drives the development process
Long live architecture!	Cognizance of architecture as a means to increase quality and technical understandability

   

Project XYZ Guiding Principles

Time is not our friend.

If it's not in 4.1 it's not in 5.0

No architectural changes if  it does not decrease effort.
