Complexity, speed, and regulation: IT and digital projects often face intense pressure. In this environment, robust project standards are essential for achieving predictable outcomes, reliable quality, and efficient collaboration. The white paper “mgm A12 Project Standards: Delivering Software Projects with the A12 Development Platform” provides a concise, practical overview of how mgm applies and continuously improves its standards in A12 projects, from initial conception to operations.
Project standards create clarity. They define how work is done, what artifacts are produced, who makes decisions, when quality is achieved, and how risks are identified early on. When implemented effectively, project standards accelerate delivery, increase transparency, and facilitate the onboarding of new team members. At the same time, project standards ensure that security and compliance requirements are addressed from the beginning, not as an afterthought.
What does the white paper “mgm A12 Project Standards” cover?
The white paper, “mgm A12 Project Standards,” summarizes the key standards, practices, and phases of an enterprise-focused software delivery approach applied by mgm in A12 platform-based projects. It covers everything from initial high-level planning and organization to kickoff and ongoing operations. The goal is to enable A12 teams to become productive quickly, address risks early on, and apply tailored solutions where they create real added value.
What is A12?
It is a platform for developing enterprise applications in complex IT landscapes. Based on model-driven software engineering (MDSE), it brings the low-code principle to enterprise software. As an open platform, A12 simplifies the integration of the best solutions and enables the use of AI across all layers.
The A12 modeling environment provides tools that allow users to create parts of an application without programming skills and maintain them as independent business logic modules in the long term. The A12 runtime platform offers the flexibility required to develop business-critical applications as fully integrated enterprise solutions, combining professional custom software development, AI support, and system integration.
Learn more about the A12 platform on the A12 website.
Additional chapters focus on build management standards (continuous delivery and cloud operations), quality assurance, and security and data protection. Furthermore, it presents toolsets that support the development of A12 applications, significantly streamlining the process.
The appendix provides an overview of the roles and responsibilities of A12 project teams, common project management methodologies, and the systematic collection of functional and non-functional requirements for A12 applications.
