Talk Abstract

InnerSource mirrors the Open Source paradigm, providing a free-flowing, unobstructed way of conducting software engineering. Thus, it is being hailed as one of the most promising innovations in software engineering, since it enables collaboration across traditional organizational borders. However, as this fundamentally changes established management and development strategies, there is still contention on how to best adapt to the new way of thinking.

We as MECOIS, the InnerSource team at FAU Erlangen (Germany) have made it our goal to break down economic barriers to entry and enable the integration of inner source into more traditional workflows. By focusing on quantitative approaches, our aim is to ease transitioning to inner source or to improve existing processes, and to benefit both management and developers alike.

In this talk specifically, we will present our newly-developed “InnerSource Reimbursement Model”, which we've built in collaboration with partners from industry and legislation. This model extends the traditional IT chargeback model and provides clear guidance on how to measure, aggregate, and distribute inner source development cost from code contributor to code user. Using modular building blocks, our approach enables inner source controlling at various levels of granularity - from a pure cost-based view needed for management, to a more holistic and value-added perspective required for tax accounting.

By the end of the presentation, attendees will have a clearer understanding of how they can use our quantitative methods to measure and steer InnerSource processes for a successful integration of Open Source principles in closed organizations.
