Method Management

A Method Engineering Workbench on the EVA Platform

Most organisations document their development methods in wikis and Word documents — producing sprawling, inconsistent, and poorly connected artefacts that practitioners ignore or work around. This paper describes a goal-driven method engineering workbench built on the EVA platform, developed in response to exactly this problem at a large financial services organisation. By grounding methods in agreed goals rather than prescribed tasks, and delivering them through a single-page interactive portal, the approach makes method content genuinely accessible, maintainable, and tailorable to project type and practitioner role.
