The Factory Approach to Large-Scale Software Development (Classic Reprint): Implications for Strategy, Technology, and Structure - Tapa blanda
Sinopsis
How can large software projects move from chaos to scale? This book examines factory-style approaches to software development, showing how structure, tools, and reuse can raise efficiency without sacrificing flexibility.
Using insight from major software facilities in the United States and Japan, it explores why some firms organize like factories while others stay more project‑based. It discusses the balance between standardization and customization, and how strategic choices shape both process and product outcomes. The work highlights practical criteria for evaluating software development environments and how management can implement smarter, more scalable practices.
- Understand the idea of a software factory and the roles of standardization, tooling, and component reuse.
- See how different firms structure development across systems software and real‑time applications.
- Learn what managers measure and how surveys and case studies inform better decisions.
- Compare cross‑country perspectives to spot patterns in process evolution and organizational design.
Ideal for readers of technology management, product development, and operations strategy who want practical guidance on scaling software work.

Excerpt from The Factory Approach to Large-Scale Software Development: Implications for Strategy, Technology, and Structure
Recent developments in design and production technology have made it necessary to revise traditionally accepted tradeoffs between process flexibility and efficiency, as well as divisions between design and production.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book considers how technological advancements impact organizational structures, using software development as a study. The author examines companies that have taken a 'factory' approach to software development, with much of the discussion comparing American and Japanese software production during the 1980s. The book draws on extensive interviews and data collected from surveys at the time. The research presented suggests that technological maturity alone may not drive producers to adopt more efficient means of production. The author instead argues that management decisions are influential in choosing appropriate organizational structures and strategies, which can lead to efficiency gains in product development. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
