principle 9 : align incentives for developer and customer
Projects often fail because customers and developers have different(and perhaps incompatible) goals.For example, take the simple case in which the customer wants features 1, 2, and 3 by a specific date and the developer wants to maximize revenue or profit.To maximize revenue the develper may attempt to build all three features in their entirety even if late.To maximize revenue the develper may attempt to build all three features in their entirety even if late.To help align the two organizations’ goals:
(1)Prioritize requirements (Principle 50)so that developers understand their relative importance,
(2) reward the developer based on the relative priorities(for example, all highpriority requirements must be satisfied, each medium priority requirement earns the developer a small additional bonus of some kind and each low priority requirement satisfied earns a very small bonus),
(3)use strict penalties for late delivery
