The concept of the Project Management Triangle can be adapted to organize work between developers and ops by balancing maintainability, velocity, and developer freedom. The ideal combination is maintainability and velocity, but this comes at the cost of restricting freedom. A systematic approach involves setting standard operating procedures and allowing teams to self-serve technology within defined limits. Regularly revisiting these procedures helps maintain communication between ops and developers, preventing misalignment in incentive structure and ownership levels. This balanced approach enables teams to achieve high velocity while maintaining maintainability, but it requires careful management of freedom to avoid silos and ensure that the right balance is struck.
