I see it all the time: Businesses implement the latest Agile and DevOps practices from thesoftware industry, hoping that simply doing so will provide the required improvements.But months and evenyears later, they're still struggling. Similarly, I watch the softwareindustry trying to learn and implement wholesale what the manufacturing industry didyears ago.As it turns out, we can't just copy what others have done. Businesses need to understandthe unique challenges of their company. And digital assets like software are very differentfrom physical assets that are manufactured. Every business is different, and softwaredevelopment is different from manufacturing.Engineering the Digital Transformation provides systematic approaches to improvinghow software is developed for a broad range of applications. This book focuses on high-level principles for engineering improvements, leveraging as much as possible frommanufacturing, and modifies them toaddress the unique characteristics and capabilitiesof software.
