An integrated performance culture that delivers ongoing improvements
The client partnered with Collaborative to incorporate performance engineering excellence into every part of the software development lifecycle. Three performance features were prioritized:
To meet these priorities, Collaborative crafted a Global Performance Model with the following components:
Link performance testing to established goals

Fostering a performance culture in the entire software development lifecycle
Using the Global Performance Model, the client has successfully implemented a number of performance projects, which serve as models that can be scaled throughout the enterprise. These projects exemplified two key advantages:
Solution
Results
Relevance: Scalability:Investments of time,
money, and talent into
performance must deliver
real, measurable value
Performance guidelines,
processes, and methods
must deliver improvements
at any scale
All of the units would work
toward one common set of
performance expectations
using proven performance
methods
Integration:
Taming a Giant:How one nimble team solved
an enterprise-wide performance issue at its core
With diverse management models and software development practices, the client, a world's leading life sciences and medical device manufacturer, needed to bring all of its units under one standard of excellence to meet its application and system performance goals.
To improve business operations, the client needed a performance model that could ensure strong user experiences, define performance expectations clearly, and provide executives with deep insight into application performance and end-user experiences.
To achieve all of this, the client needed to transform its performance management model and smartly direct investments for improvements that would yield measurable benefits.
