Mean Time to Pivot is a measure of Agility
Cprime’s approach is that Process alone isn’t going to be enough. Let’s take a standard process such as scrum

THE PROBLEM:
In 2008, Wiredrive faced two major problems that had been years in the making. The first was that it had two competing business focuses: custom Web design; and online file-sharing services. Both provided revenues, but while the long-term potential of the latter was larger, the attention devoted to the former slowed progress on the file-sharing service. The second was difficulty in planning and implementing new capabilities for the file-sharing service. The company’s “Waterfall” process worked, but its pace and flexibility proved disappointing.
THE CHALLENGE:
Business Focus
In the early years, Wiredrive provided a custom Web-development service, in addition to the filesharing service. The split focus impaired the company’s ability to grow revenues. While the Web-development work brought in money on a time-and-materials basis, the file-sharing business provided a continuing revenue stream that was not restricted by billable hours. The file-sharing business was more profitable, but resource contention from the other service crippled its growth.
THE RESULTS:
Making Sacrifices Now for Long Term Benefits
Wiredrive did “go dark.” The development team implemented a clean-sheet design to provide a platform for future development, and created extensive automated tests to enable quick assessment of product quality. This process took months, during which the company provided no new features to customers. The decision paid off, in terms of software stability and quality, and the company has been able to resume feature development with much less breakage.
