Multiple factors can drive output creation at the company, team and individual levels. On the company level, they include: 

• Company culture 
• Employee training 
• Working facilities 
• Employee motivation 
• Time to ramp up 
• Level of talent attrition 

On the team level, these five factors can drive — or undermine — output creation: 

• Team configuration 
• Knowledge management and sharing 
• Delivery processes 
• Tooling 
• Automation 

On the individual level, the following factors can impact output creation during a software development project: 

• Aptitude 
• Level and range of technical skills 
• Project experience 
• Domain knowledge 
• Experience in a particular environment 
• Location and time zone proximity to colleagues and stakeholders 
• Communication and English skills 

There are eight factors to consider in order to ensure a successful software delivery engagement: 

• Contract and commercials. Stakeholders need to ensure their continued alignment with organizational needs 
• Talent generation. The team should possess a well-balanced set of skills that corresponds to the scope of work 
• Knowledge transition. The vendor has to capture well the knowledge incumbent teams possess 
• Engagement operating model. Role and responsibility distribution between the two parties has to be transparent and observed by both the client and the vendor 
• Scope and demand management. The scope defined by the client should correspond to the engagement objectives and operating model 
• Engineering performance. Its assessment should be objective and effective, powered by establishing and tracking key performance indicators 
• Governance. The governance framework should be harmonized, jointly designed and aligned with the chosen engagement model 
• Transformation. The vendor can add value to the client beyond the contractual obligations, provided the relationship is built on trust and mutual respect 

The IT vendor can go beyond contractual obligations to deliver maximum value to the client. Here are the eight principles that foster value addition: 

• Treating value addition as every team member’s responsibility, from top management to software engineers 
• Clearly defining the context for value addition, such as the client’s business objectives and applications in scope 
• Putting value addition on par with contractual obligations 
• Consider value addition in a 360-degree view to measure its impact across the whole engineering chain
• Treating every idea with respect and encouragement 
• Incentivizing value addition idea generation and initiative-taking 
• Facilitating creative thinking with stimulation and blue-sky thinking techniques 
• Establishing a detailed and transparent governance framework to track progress
