I decided to become an independent consultant a few months ago. This is familiar territory for me because I started my career as an entrepreneur and later on I became an independent consultant. Since I left the Canary Islands, almost 15 years ago, I have been working for an employer in one way or another. Therefore, this step is like somehow going back in time and returning to my roots.
I have had the privilege of working with great professionals in both, organizations and Open Source communities. And this time is no exception. I am working in partnership with Bitergia on a service offering we both have designed together. Bitergia is the world’s leading company in data analytics for Open Source development and community management. Some years ago, they moved “behind the firewall ” to provide advanced data analytics and strategic consultancy to OSPOs and InnerSource programs. More recently, they have expanded their offering into production environments.
Bitergia and I have collaborated in the past years on different occasions and have been talking about doing something like this for quite some time now. I am proud to announce our current collaboration in the form of a packaged service called Delivery Performance Analytics.
Delivery Performance Analytics is a consulting service dedicated to continuously enhancing how organizations sustainably deliver better software-defined products faster, while increasing the workforce’s well-being, by combining a data analytics approach with a proficient multidisciplinary consulting team.
This service is unique in several aspects. Our combined backgrounds and expertise put us in a unique position to bring advanced data analytics into organizations that are developing rich software-defined products at scale in complex environments, so they can continuously optimize their delivery process performance, increasing throughput and stability, while improving the staff’s well-being.
I would like to highlight in this first post two core values that are guiding us in the design and execution of Delivery Performance Analytics. I’m particularly proud of them:
- Human-centric: software product design, development, delivery and maintenance are about tools, processes, and data. But first and foremost, they are about people. Improving delivery and organizational performance must come hand-in-hand with increasing the workforce’s well-being.
- Open Source is more than our Motherland. It is a matter of values for both Bitergia and myself. From our tooling to our consultancy activity, from our practices to our dashboards or reports, there is zero vendor lock-in by design in our service. It is all about our customers taking full control of their data analytics strategy, as well as the initial implementation we provide.

During the coming days, I will publish several articles about this new service, explaining how companies can benefit from it, what this offering’s key features are, as well as some technical aspects that should help readers to better understand the kind of problems we are providing remedies to. You will also see communications and additional content from Bitergia about this joint service.
