Effective Team Work Model

- 2. Effective Team Work Model • This model can be applied to development projects having a minimum of 4 team members working in the same technology. • According to this model, there will be 3 levels of peer support for the actual developer and the peers themselves will be provided the same model of support. • This model will ensure smooth functioning of the project even during sudden non-availability of a developer or in cases where a developer moves out of the team. • This model will lead to improvement in quality, responsiveness and efficiency of deliverables .
- 3. Approach • Level 1: Backup peer position where another developer has the same functional knowledge and technical skills as that of the original developer. This is a critical layer enabling smooth execution of the tasks assigned, in the absence of the original developer. • Level 2: Technical support position assigned to another developer who has the technical skills similar to that of the original developer. The person in this position will be responsible for technical review of the deliveries to be made by the original developer. • Level 3: Functional support position assigned to another developer who has the functional knowledge similar to that of the original developer. The person in this position will be responsible for functional review of the deliveries to be made by the original developer.
- 4. Developer with functional knowledge and technical skills relevant for his/her assigned development module/component Level 1: Backup developer with similar functional knowledge and technical skills Level 2: Developer with similar technical skills for technical review Level 3: Developer with similar functional knowledge for functional review
- 5. • In the sudden absence of a team member, his/her backup peer can work on that team member’s tasks. • If that backup peer is already overloaded with development tasks for which he/she is primarily responsible, then his/her backup peer can share the workload of his/her other 2 roles.
- 6. Backup Methodology Member temporarily unavailable Developer with functional knowledge and technical skills relevant for his/her assigned development module/component Level 1: Backup developer with similar functional knowledge and technical skills Level 2: Developer with similar technical skills for technical review Level 3: Developer with similar functional knowledge for functional review
- 7. Transition Methodology • Level 1 Transition – Functional transition: When a team member is going to move out of the team, then the person identified as his/her replacement gets functional knowledge transition about all the functionalities being worked and supported by the outgoing member. • Level 2 Transition – Role transition: Then he/she gets knowledge transition from the outgoing member about the roles and responsibilities played by him/her at all levels he/she was involved in. • Once these transitions are completed, the incoming member replaces the outgoing member and the project functions smoothly without any gaps or issues.

Developer with functional knowledge and technical skills relevant for his/her assigned development module/component Level 1: Backup developer with similar functional knowledge and technical skills Level 2: Developer with similar technical skills for technical review Level 3: Developer with similar functional knowledge for functional review
- 9. Member moving out Member moving in Developer with Incoming functional knowledge and technical skills member gets relevant for his/her functional assigned development module/component knowledge transition Level 1: Backup about all the developer with similar functional knowledge functionalities and technical skills being worked and supported Level 2: Developer by the with similar technical skills for technical outgoing review member Level 3: Developer with similar functional knowledge for functional review
- 10. Member moving out Member moving in Developer with functional knowledge Incoming and technical skills member gets relevant for his/her assigned development knowledge module/component transition from outgoing Level 1: Backup developer with similar member about functional knowledge the roles and technical skills played by him/her at all Level 2: Developer with similar technical levels he/she skills for technical was involved in review Level 3: Developer with similar functional knowledge for functional review
- 11. Developer with functional knowledge and technical skills relevant for his/her assigned development module/component Level 1: Backup developer with similar functional knowledge and technical skills Level 2: Developer with similar technical skills for technical review Level 3: Developer with similar functional knowledge for functional review
