Thanks I will have to check that out.  Even if I can't convince others, my team could possibly try it.

 

NP :) Lean does take a corporate buy-in, so it's hard to do from a departmental perspective, but you could do Agile, and Extreme Programming.

A few good books on it:

http://www.amazon.com/Extreme-Programming-Explained-Embrace-Change/dp/0321278658/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1215663401&sr=1-3

http://www.amazon.com/Lean-Software-Development-Agile-Toolkit/dp/0321150783/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1215663466&sr=1-5

http://www.amazon.com/User-Stories-Applied-Development-Addison-Wesley/dp/0321205685/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1215663530&sr=1-9

The last one I would recommend the most "User Stories", mainly because Mike Cohn is an awesome guy, and it's a great book. (he was the keynote at my last conference. Funny as hell).
