How DevOps is Enabling Lean Application Development
summary
Nationwide reports scaling from a handful to 200 agile teams handling 70% of work via agile, then hitting diminishing returns from wait states and tool variance. The team builds a continuous delivery pipeline that ingests work from Clarity, ServiceNow and Quality Center via Tasktop → RTC → UrbanCode, surfaces defects, security scans and test results, enforces quality gates, and lets portfolio managers see release opportunities. Technology reduces handoffs but cultural variance, funding models and empowerment remain the bottlenecks.
