API Enablement Success
Making Connections Fast
In the fast-paced business world of today, it’s essential to have an environment that enables your IT staff to implement new features and changes quickly. For instance, if your sales team wants to provide customers with order tracking, it should be done promptly, not in months or years.
Avoiding the pitfalls
Organizations experience several pitfalls when a new requirement comes in for access to corporate data, legacy or not.
Development Staff
Your development team does not possess the necessary skills to create simple, reusable data access methods.
- In many organizations, the development staff is often trained to prioritize speed over reusability. This is usually unintentional, as organizations focus on completing tasks quickly without enough oversight to ensure that they align with a strategic vision.
- Projects where no strategic visionary, usually a Software Architect, is assigned to ensure that the development staff is not creating solutions that only fit one purpose.
- Various departments with their own development staff have differing opinions on how their data should be accessed.
One of the most important first steps is to build a great team. Read more about creating a successful team

Business Staff
The business staff wishing to have their solution delivered to the market as soon as possible can sometimes be their own worst enemy. Combined with the development situation above, the attitude may be portrayed to the project or Scrum Master of “Just get it done!”.
Often, another business area may have a requirement for similar functionality that has already been developed. Imagine the disappointment when they find that the solution cannot be reused for their business need. This often requires a significant development effort to provide their clients with equivalent functionality.
