 _________________________________________
/ It is a very humbling experience to     \
| make a multimillion-dollar mistake, but |
| it is also very memorable. I vividly    |
| recall the night we decided how to      |
| organize the actual writing of external |
| specifications for OS/360. The manager  |
| of architecture, the manager of control |
| program implementation, and I were      |
| threshing out the plan, schedule, and   |
| division of responsibilities.           |
|                                         |
| The architecture manager had 10 good    |
| men. He asserted that they could write  |
| the specifications and do it right. It  |
| would take ten months, three more than  |
| the schedule allowed.                   |
|                                         |
| The control program manager had 150     |
| men. He asserted that they could        |
| prepare the specifications, with the    |
| architecture team coordinating; it      |
| would be well-done and practical, and   |
| he could do it on schedule.             |
| Furthermore, if the architecture team   |
| did it, his 150 men would sit twiddling |
| their thumbs for ten months.            |
|                                         |
| To this the architecture manager        |
| responded that if I gave the control    |
| program team the responsibility, the    |
| result would not in fact be on time,    |
| but would also be three months late,    |
| and of much lower quality. I did, and   |
| it was. He was right on both counts.    |
| Moreover, the lack of conceptual        |
| integrity made the system far more      |
| costly to build and change, and I would |
| estimate that it added a year to        |
| debugging time.                         |
|                                         |
