How I Can Help
Hardware or Software?
Yes! I work with both types of development, with a special focus on mixed hardware/software projects. I’m familiar with everything from phase-gate processes to Agile and Lean methods for both hardware and software, and with a variety of process improvement methods. This broad background enables me to propose solutions which capitalize on the strengths of your organization and fit into your current development framework.

Kathy Iberle has been a trusted collaborator since our HP days, and was there at the beginning of the Rapid Learning Cycles framework.
