In the realm of digital transformations, particularly focusing on continuous testing, quality, security, and feedback, CSVSM plays a crucial role in identifying inefficiencies, bottlenecks, and areas for improvement in existing processes and systems. Here’s how CSVSM is applied in these contexts:
- Assessment:
- Identify current processes: CSVSM helps in the detailed mapping of existing testing, quality assurance, security, and feedback collection processes. This step is crucial...
