I work as a computer programmer/analyst and have a very accommodating and forward-thinking boss. He asked for a proposal to implement ROWE for myself and the other two programmers in our company.
While excited for the opportunity, I am sorry to say we have been at a loss to find a way to measure the results of our work that is both objective and fair to the company and to the programmers.
Has anyone successfully been able to measure computer programming work?
Thanks!

Sorry for the re-post. Forgot to login on the previous one.
Without knowing your specific business or work product all I can offer is what I ahve seen in the past. Programmers are usually, in my experience, working on projects. If you have a project, or group of projects, that you are working on, that is your results orientation. You have milestones to meet in the process which makes it "results only". If you can meet the milestones for this week, then you are free to schedule youtr time accordinagly. Measure it by milestones in the project.
