At Adolph & Associates, a company based in Vancouver, Canada, we specialize in providing consulting and training services to support you, our clients, through transitioning to and improving on your lean and agile practices – helping you to create and deliver value faster.

We believe in lean and agile principles, and we use them to guide our own practice. When implemented well and incorporated into the corporate culture, lean and agile practices have the ability to help companies to build products faster and with fewer bugs, and to deliver value that delights their customers.

Software development is a risky and expensive proposition. Late deliveries, defective products, cost overruns, and ruined careers and businesses are just some of the debris resulting from failed or less-than-successful projects. This is expensive debris, considering that the global software development industry is estimated at 1.6 trillion U.S. dollars annually.

Steve Adolph, our principal, has many years of experience in the software industry, as well as extensive knowledge of the latest research and industry practices. This gives him the breadth of understanding and depth of skills necessary to help you to realize effective and lasting change. Steve is also a thought leader in the software engineering industry, with numerous publications to his name. Check out his blog covering all topics related to software development, lean, and agile.

We have worked with teams as small as five people working on mobile application development all the way to multiple large distributed teams working on integrated hardware and software development for running industrial equipment.

Our larger and more widely-known clients include:

  • John Deere
  • Amazon
  • Hewlett-Packard
  • Cambia Health
  • General Electric
  • VMWare
  • Bank of America
  • Verizon
  • PayPal
