Are Reviews the Silver Bullits?

At the 4^th World Congress for Software Quality, 2008 in Bethesda, USA, Capers Jones has once again shown on the basis of data from 13,000 projects in 650 companies  that reviews (peer reviews, inspections, walkthrough) are the best measures to increase productivity in software development projects. A quantitative confirmation of what I experience since the 80s in my professional practice.

In the seminar

Review Methods for cost-efficient and better Development 

I train review methods and the role of reviews in a project.

With consulting for management, and coaching for project managers and quality assurance managers, I support the introduction into practice.
