It’s not surprising that teams are under constant pressure to go faster and be leaner. New technologies become top of mind. Market dynamics change. The C-Suite shifts its focus. Navigating these complexities and delivering great new software on time and with minimal rework requires the careful alignment of really diverse teams. Often, this pressure occurs regardless of whether teams believe those changes will provide the intended value. The tipping point for this pressure often comes from a breakdown in communication between the design (often driven by the architects) and implementation (engineering). Communication, interpretation, and execution gaps between architects and engineers frequently emerge, posing significant risks to business outcomes. These risks include delays, increased costs, and missed strategic goals. The process of translating architectural plans and product requirements into actionable code can be a major challenge.

In this talk, we will address these common problems and explore how process orchestration offers a structured approach to aligning architectural plans with development teams. We will also examine how process orchestration can help break down organizational silos and create seamless connections between teams and systems. We’ll dive into how process orchestration helps by:

• Coordinating diverse endpoints (people, systems, and devices),
• Bridging gaps and streamlining workflows,
• Reducing the risk of costly errors,
• Accelerating the delivery of high-quality software
