Titled Achieving Safety-Critical Development Maturity with Agile/DevOps ALM, the study examines the use of DevOps and Agile scaling frameworks (SAFe®, LeSS) in regulated development. With an example from auto manufacturer BMW, it also analyzes the role of ALM in satisfying the needs of safety-critical development.
“Tools can help in bringing transparency into bottlenecks and issues, in reducing feedback cycles, and in having the right information to hand when troubleshooting. The role of ALM is paramount in this respect. […] BMW’s choice of Intland codeBeamer for its ALM solution was based on its ability to support development for safety-critical products, including agile practices and end-to-end work item traceability.”
– Michael Azoff, Achieving safety-critical development maturity with Agile/DevOps ALM, Ovum
Claiming that Agile/DevOps is the next step in the evolution of software development, the report states thatcodeBeamer is a next-generation ALM tool that can support the accelerated delivery of quality software at scale and with low risks. The paper recognizes the benefits of Agile scaling frameworks such as LeSS and SAFe® used in conjunction with ALM to satisfy the compliance, regulatory, safety, and security requirements of safety-critical development.
“As evidenced by our growing user base in the automotive industry as well as among medical and avionics developers, codeBeamer represents a new generation of Application Lifecycle Management that enables the adoption of Agile and DevOps practices in these regulated industries. The experiences of our automotive customer quoted in the study underline that codeBeamer brings maturity to the integration of ALM and Agile/DevOps. We hope that Ovum’s recognition of our tool will allow us to help more companies create high-quality software in safety-critical environments.”
