The Kickstart Accelerated Delivery Assessment™ provides your team with specific recommendations on delivering better software faster by focusing on software production. The Stelligent Accelerated Delivery Index™ is calculated using a five-point scorecard that analyzes and ranks risks associated with getting software out the door faster. These include developer testing, test coverage, code complexity, build management system and version control strategy.
Teams can use this information to determine how rapidly they can deliver software, the quality of an offshore initiative, or due diligence of acquired software.

The Accelerated Delivery Index is presented in an easy to read, numeric format so that teams immediately identify risk areas and recommendations for improvement. This information is categorized and calculated using well-accepted accelerated delivery best practices; furthermore, the data utilized to calculate risk is obtained in an unbiased manner ensuring a consistent barometer to facilitate effective trend analysis.

Once the Kickstart Accelerated Delivery Assessment has established a baseline for software production, many customers elect to have Stelligent immediately apply tactical improvements in their teams such as Continuous Integration System Implementation or Developer Testing Ignition.
