Peter Drucker's observation highlights that being efficient in producing outcomes, which don't meet true needs, can render efforts counterproductive. Addressing efficacy is essential for genuine advancement.
The main focus should be on how government agencies can implement high-quality, secure software that significantly enhances mission outcomes rather than simply seeking faster and cheaper solutions.
Despite initial success in adopting agile methods and user design, software factories often fall prey to an overarching problem: prioritizing efficiencies when they should emphasize efficacy and mission impact.
The push for government software factories was based on the premise of streamlining software delivery to public sector users, yet they often grapple with realigning their goals toward actual user needs.
