Pega's low-code vision

As momentum for low-code continues to expand, Pega Platform™ helps enterprises succeed at every step of the low-code continuum with development in Pega Studios.

Low-code momentum

Traditional enterprise software delivery is resource intensive. As opportunities for automation increase exponentially and agility represents a mission-critical competitive advantage, there is no way a six-month development cycle that consumes an average of 15 full time equivalents (FTEs) can meet the automation demands of today’s enterprise, as shown in the following diagram:

Traditional enterprise software delivery

The solution to scaling enterprise software development cannot be simply to throw more development resources at the problem. Why? Because there simply are not enough to go around.  

According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, the software engineer shortage in the USA will increase to almost 1.2 million by 20261. According to a recent Reveal survey, more than a third of respondents indicate that they continue to struggle to find skilled developers2. The same survey finds that nearly 50 percent of a developer’s time is spent on actually coding applications. With coders in such high demand, it’s not surprising that the median annual salary for software is 50 percent higher than the salary for business analysts3.
