Abstract
Few businesses are interested in product quality as an end it itself. Instead, their market determines the necessary level of quality, often called “good enough quality” described by J. Bach (1997). However, almost every business could benefit from a reduction in its product planned time to market, usually called the cycle time. But if you cannot meet your currently planned shipping dates, it may be difficult to reduce cycle time, and software projects commonly exceed their planned schedule. The usual reason for schedule overruns is that good enough quality is not achieved until after the planned date. If the necessary level of quality could be achieved more efficiently, in less schedule time, then perhaps we could make faster progress in reducing software cycle time. At least to this extent, schedule and quality should not be incompatible
