IDC PlanScape: Lean Checklists to Improve Delivery and Credibility
This IDC PlanScape discusses lean checklists to improve delivery and credibility."A common form of standardized work is the use of checklists. Checklists are simple and consistent, easy to follow, and easy to revise. They make the sequence of process steps clear and allow for the inclusion of the owners of process steps, tools used, process step predecessors, dependencies, and indicators of success and failure," says Niel Nickolaisen, adjunct research advisor for IDC's IT Executive Programs (IEP).
