Plandek provides the metrics and analytics to improve R&D ROI within portcos
- CTOs use Plandek to better understand the end-to-end software delivery process and build a world-class delivery capability.
- Plandek’s highly customisable dashboards and metrics are adopted across the delivery organisation from the teams upwards, to drive productivity and accelerate value delivery.
- Plandek is super-easy to install and plugs seamlessly into existing DevOps toolsets.
- Plandek answers two key questions for the CTO: is our technology resource correctly focused on our strategic priorities? And if so, are we delivering as efficiently as possible? If the answer two both questions is ‘yes’ - then we are optimising R&D ROI.
