Solution
The team was determined to find a solution
that would do two things. First of all, they
wanted an application life cycle
management suite that would give them
control over their software. Secondly, they
wanted a tool that would help them
improve the quality of their work in terms of
planning, measuring throughput time and
tracking progress. The team decided to
implement Microsofts Application Lifecycle
Management solution as well as Visual
Studio.
Implementation started in early 2011 with
the dedicated support of a Microsoft
consultant on-site. During the initial phase,
the legacy systems were migrated to the
new ALM environment. The legacy source
code was imported and a framework to
ensure versioning was put in place.
Effectively, phase 1 laid the groundwork for
a solid IT service department. In fact, the
first phase went so well that it inspired
confidence for the following phases.
Since the beginning of 2012, the Al Noor
Hospitals IT team has been focusing more
on the process of the application lifecycle
management itself and on Scrum
methodology as part of phase 2 of the
project.
Phase 3 will see the implementation of
Visual Studios Lab management. The
moment a developer checks in his code, the
build will automatically be triggered, and
can also notify the quality assurance
