Discover how HP is applying Lean principles to drive the integration of large systems, resulting in both higher quality and higher productivity. In the HP printer business, Lean integration is 1. making complex programs easier to manage by providing visibility into what the product can and cannot do at any point in the development 2. improving the customer's experience by making customer workflows functional and visible early and often throughout the lifecycle 3. reducing cost by driving synchronization of delivery across technology components This paper provides an introduction to the methods known as Lean Software and Systems Development. Lean is able to handle situations which are difficult to handle using the most commonly known agile methods, such as large, complex, and partially waterfall systems, by applying methods deriving from queuing theory and statistics. Lean methods are demonstrated in this paper with examples and results from actual projects in the HP Inkjet and LaserJet businesses.
