Parallel Development: How to Move Faster Without Losing Quality

In today’s fast-changing market, time-to-market has become a decisive competitive advantage. Parallel cross-team development — an approach where multiple teams work simultaneously on different parts of a product, accelerating delivery. However, this approach increases complexity: team workloads grow, the risk of conflicts rises, and the role of the system analyst as a connecting link becomes critical.

In this talk, I’ll share real-world experience from SM Lab:

• the technical and organisational challenges we faced;
• the analytical practices that helped us maintain control and quality;
• how we set up the parallel development process at the company level.

You’ll get practical advice and proven techniques to help implement parallel development within your team.

This talk will be useful for senior and lead analysts, team leads, architects, project leads, and IT managers — anyone looking to accelerate development without losing quality or control.
