Executive Roundtable: Developerzy pod lupą: jak mierzyć, porównywać i oceniać efektywność zespołów IT

Zarządzanie zespołami IT nie może opierać się na intuicji. Efektywność wymaga twardych danych i miar. Które zespoły są naprawdę skuteczne? Jak ocenić, ile pracy wymagało wdrożenie konkretnej funkcji? W jaki sposób mierzyć postęp i jakość pracy programistów bez polegania na subiektywnych wskaźnikach?   Podczas spotkania CIONET Executive Roundtable porozmawiamy o tym, jak nowoczesne narzędzia analityczne – takie jak BlueOptima – pozwalają na obiektywne i porównywalne mierzenie coding effort, czyli rzeczywistego wysiłku włożonego w rozwój oprogramowania. Takie podejście może wspierać nie tylko kontrolę efektywności, ale też jakość, planowanie zespołów i – w dalszej perspektywie – optymalizację kosztów.   W trakcie dyskusji: Wyjaśnimy, czym jest coding effort i jak można go mierzyć niezależnie od technologii czy stylu pracy zespołu. Omówimy, jakie wskaźniki (np. wysiłek dzienny, wskaźnik trudnego do utrzymania kodu, koszt jednostki wysiłku) mają realną wartość dla liderów IT. Pokażemy, jak dane mogą pomóc w identyfikowaniu ryzyk, ocenie jakości kodu i skuteczniejszym zarządzaniu zespołami developerskimi. Zajrzymy też "pod maskę" – jak działa architektura platform takich jak BlueOptima, skąd czerpie dane i jak zapewnia obiektywność metryk. Naszym partnerem w przygotowaniu spotkania jest firma BlueOptima. Gość specjalny Jarosław Wójciński, Head of IT, BENEFIT SYSTEMS podzieli się praktycznymi doświadczeniami z wdrożenia i wykorzystania tej platformy w codziennej pracy działu IT.

Embark on a culinary journey through the ever-evolving world of digital leadership with our third edition of the CIONET Cookbook: Recipes for Digital Success. Unveiling the intricate trilemma faced by today’s Master Chefs, our trailblazing European CIOs address a challenge at the nexus of customer interests, digital transformation strategies, and IT modernisation. Their secret? Synchronising the gearing between customer, business, and technology to create a frictionless movement through the digital landscape.

The CIONET Cookbook uses the analogy of a five-star restaurant to explain the importance of optimally integrated technology, with the CIO as Master Chef. In order to provide the best service to its customers, a top restaurant must have the right atmosphere, an inviting menu, a well-equipped kitchen, talented and committed front-of-house and kitchen staff and smooth-running processes that ensure an enjoyable experience for diners.

The impact of AI on ICT

The evolution of AI is comparable to that of IT, but it’s happening much faster. As with IT in its early days, AI is becoming deeply embedded in almost every business function. Amara’s Law also applies here: we tend to overestimate AI’s short-term effects and underestimate its long-term impact. This makes it essential to embed AI across your company in a structured way.
