Don't expect the organization to change overnight, and don't expect the entire
organization to change at the same time. Consider following steps for a smooth
transition:
Over time the need for this team will dissipate as the enterprise
standardizes on DevOps practices. So, from the outset, everyone should know that
the team itself is temporary, and only exists to initiate and guide the transition
� not to continually oversee and manage DevOps practices in the long term.
To carefully consider how the transformation will affect every aspect of the
organization and a clear vision of what you want to achieve, and ad-hoc, a sound
governance strategy should cover organizational, financial and operational
requirements, and the process must be designed to be repeatable, as the DevOps
journey is not just a one-off deal, but an ongoing process to facilitate continuous
improvement.
This is the most important step to make an impact to the culture of the
organization. With Agile and DevOps, practitioners� roles and responsibilities will
change. They�ll need awareness, enablement and empowerment to succeed. It is
extremely important they understand collaboration between organizations that
historically may have had animosity so they can break down these organizational
walls. KPIs must shift from individual metrics to holistic customer business
outcomes
DevOps isn't a destination, it's a journey towards a frequent and more reliable
release pipeline, automation and stronger collaboration between development, IT and
business teams. This maturity model is designed to help you assess where your team
is on their DevOps journey.�
The maturity assessment model consists of set of questions, which would help to
assess the maturity level of the business unit or organization. It helps to
understand the existing capabilities and determine the gap in maturity.
