The Iron Triangle is a Myth

Toyota demonstrated that the relationship between scope, time, and cost is not fixed and that it is indeed possible to deliver more, in less time, with less money, and at a higher quality.

Achieving this doesn't mean overloading teams with more work; rather, it involves examining how work is done and refining the process to eliminate wasted effort. By reducing unnecessary work, teams can focus more on what truly adds value, leading to greater output with less effort and improved quality.

This talk introduces the Penta co-created by Tom Gilb and Al Shalloway as a framework for designing a more effective value creation and delivery approach. By focusing on five key elements scope, values, efficiency, resources, and designs organizations can tailor workflows to their specific context. Ultimately, value delivery can be reframed around meaningful outcomes rather than rigid, predefined outputs.
