Summary: What is the WASTE we are trying to remove?
Manual Efforts
• Deployments
require human
intervention
• Reliance on
scripts
• Environment
configuration is
done on an “as-
needed” basis
Long Wait
Times
• Teams waiting on
manual handoffs
• Resources not
available when
needed
• Delayed time-to-
test
• Insufficient
notification
Unproductive
Work
• Using static
environments
• Deploying things
that have not
changed
• Managing
infrastructure &
apps separately
• Not leveraging
virtualization &
cloud correctly
Poor Visibility
• Reliance on
spreadsheets,
meetings, con
calls to know
status
• Limited
understanding of
deployment
dependencies
and status
• Long Outage

The transformation: Copyright Clearance Center’s developers were
using an agile software development process. However, the deployment
procedure was becoming a bottleneck. The company automated the
release and deployment of its software and database components
using IBM® UrbanCode™ software, eliminating the need for release
planning sessions.
83% decrease
in release times by
automating deployments
50% reduction
in number of staff needed for each
software release
Saves 4,800 hours
of work within the first year by
eliminating the need for numerous
release planning meetings
