Update:

OK, the tikiwiki that this website is running on, is now successfully upgraded. (no more registration issues)

There are numerous improvements, but I like to point out one. On many places, as a logged in user, you can now tag content using the Folksonomy box located at the top right of this website. And we can all search using the tags.

In addition to the upgrade, I have moved the website away from the /community/ sub domain, so if you have pages bookmarked, they need to be changed

from: www.gilb.com/community/...
to: www.gilb.com/...

and the url that is generated from clicking on the menu items on the left side, are much more human friendly.

Productivity: Concept *659. August 6 2008 (New)
Productivity is delivering promised value to stakeholders.

‘Deliver’ means actually measurable handed over and available to stakeholders.

‘Promised’ means that clear written agreements, are made in contacts, Requirements, documents and slides, or clear undeniable expectations are set.

‘Value’ means something of perceived use, to the Stakeholder; they need it, they want it, they are willing to sacrifice Resources to get it, they will be unhappy if it is late or lower in power than their expectations.

‘Benefits’ are the results of the perceived value to stakeholders. Benefits are what really happens, though time, as a result of the engineering value delivered.
It is an open question whether systems engineering should attempt to take some planning responsibility for enhancing benefits realization, or whether this is the system recipient Stakeholders that should be responsible for planning an environment to maximize benefits. Someone has to take this responsibility, and I fear that the system users with their ‘day jobs’, do not feel they are responsible or capable. In which case an opportunity for systems engineers, to enlarge their conventional scope of planning, exists.

So, we can simplify and say ‘engineering productivity’ is the ability to deliver agreed requirements.
