The Value-Driven Team: Mastering Objective Performance

Dream Offer: Board-ready certainty on software cost, schedule and risk — in 4 weeks!

An AgileBenchmark Program by Harold van Heeringen

Most Agile teams are stuck in a "Labor Trap." They report on hours, velocity, and effort, yet the business still can't see the Economic Value being produced. This program breaks that cycle by introducing Easy Functional Sizing (EFS)—an objective way to measure the value (output) of software development.

The Problem: The "Input" vs. "Output" Blind Spot.

  • The Productivity Illusion: A team can be 100% "busy" (high hours) while delivering 0% functional value.

  • The Benchmark Barrier: Without a standardized unit of measurement, you cannot compare performance between teams, vendors, or past projects.

  • Gut-Feel Governance: Decisions are made based on who speaks the loudest, rather than who delivers the most functional "bang for the buck."

The Solution: Measure Software like an Asset

We teach your team to see software through the lens of ISO-standardized Functional Size. This allows you to treat software as a measurable asset rather than an unpredictable expense.

What the Program Covers

This 1-day intensive moves the needle from Guessing to Value Management:

  • Module 1: From Effort to Value – Shifting the mindset from "Hours Spent" to "Functionality Delivered."

  • Module 2: ISO-Standardized Benchmarking – How to use EFS to create a "cost per unit of value" that makes sense to the Board.

  • Module 3: Performance Measurement – Establishing your baseline. Are you getting faster, or just busier?

  • Module 4: Data-Driven Decision Making – Using objective size to decide which features to build, which to kill, and where to invest.

  • The Expert Coaching: A 1-hour 1-to-1 session with Harold to analyze your team's historical performance and set your first real benchmark.

The Outcomes: Better Decisions, Better Transparency, Better ROI

  1. Objective Benchmarking: Compare team performance and vendor efficiency using a global "yardstick" (ISO/IEC).

  2. Value-Based Roadmapping: Prioritize the backlog based on functional density rather than subjective "size."

  3. Performance Transparency: Show stakeholders exactly how much "value" was delivered for every Euro spent.
