Application Development Team Organization

You can organize the application development team in two ways, depending upon your organization's requirements.

Larger Team, Shorter Time Span

If you want to implement a large number of processes in a short period of time -- say, 100 processes in 6 months -- you would need a large number of developers for that time, and then a few people performing maintenance once the development was complete.

There are two important considerations for this type of model:

All of the resources involved must be familiar with AgilePoint development methodologies. You must train all of them before the project starts.
Because of the large team size and short time span, effective project management is required.

Smaller Team, Longer Time Span

If you want to implement a smaller number of processes over a longer period of time -- say, 3-10 processes per month -- you would need a relatively small number of developers on an ongoing basis.

In this type of model, the initial costs are lower, but it takes longer -- typically 2-3 years for a large enterprise.
