InformationWeek: The Federal National Mortgage Association, commonly known as Fannie Mae, is a US government-sponsored enterprise that is a leading source of financing for mortgage lenders.
To meet the challenge of working leaner and faster, Fannie Mae began an enterprise-wide program with the goal of becoming a more competitive, customer-centric organization that would be quicker to market while safely managing risk.
According to Gregg Davis, Fannie Mae's quality management manager, the program announcement inspired thousands of improvement suggestions. In 2015, three ideas were approved: adopting an Agile software development approach, simplifying governance, and implementation of DevOps. The project's primary objectives were to partner with customers, reduce complexity, empower developers, reduce costs and accelerate development.
