Perf Application User Guide

Not every project goes perfectly.

Due to various reasons scope might change, deadlines might shift, team might be under-skilled due to staffing constraints and so on.

We believe that reasonable data-driven analysis of project aspects can give valuable hints on performance bottlenecks and root causes of issues.

PERF is an application to monitor and analyze project team performance.

PERF builds its analytics based on underlying data from Release And Task Tracking Systems, Version Control Systems, Build And Pipeline Systems, Code Quality Control Systems and Custom Integrations.

PERF provides metrics and KPI in a form of Visual Charts and Detailed Data Table Drilldowns. The most common types of projects are covered by default: fixed scope, iteration-based (Scrum), continuous flow (Kanban).

PERF also provides holistic bird-eye view on the performance of Department, Business Unit and even the whole Company.

The application answers questions like:

  • Is team behind or ahead of schedule?

  • What is the velocity and its trend?

  • What is the accuracy of team's estimates?

  • How reliable is team's delivery vs. their commitments?

  • How efficient is team's testing strategy?

  • Is the workload of a team optimal for upcoming iterations? Are there any over- or under-utilized people in a team?

  • What are the recommendations on best practices to obtain the maximum transparency on a project?

  • How does a Business Unit or Department Perform from a bird-eye view?
