宣言中表示交付工作本質上是獨一無二的，應用程序、組織、部署環境和團隊的每個組合都有自己的上下文，每個團隊都需要理解這種獨特的交付和自動化。雖然持續交付對滿足業務需求至關重要，但自動化執行所有重複任務也是重中之重。

工作思路是人類做決策，任務則由自動化去完成，而加速自動化的方式與加速應用的方式相同：使用現代架構、編程語言以及通用框架、代碼庫與服務。

以下是Software Defined Delivery 的定義：

Core:  Delivery is a fundamental and strategic capability for every software team and organization.

• First-class:  Delivery code is production code.
• Strategic:  Decide policy at the team and organization level; implement it with precision, without toil, in code.
• Evolving:  As we learn, we continually improve our delivery.

Engineered:  In robust, testable code. 70s-era scripting languages are insufficient.

• Modern software architecture:  Event-driven and extensible.
• Modern programming languages:  Logic is best specified in code, not pictures or GUIs. Scripts don’t scale.
• Model-based:  Backed by a model of the software domain, with understanding of code.
• Testable:  Enabling short trips to spot errors before production.

Collaborative:

• Among people:  Each person can express their expertise in code for everyone’s benefit.
• Among software:  We use best-of-breed tools, but how we combine them is unique.
• Between people and software:  Collaborative automation enhances our perception and implements our decisions. It brings information and actions to where we are and makes automated behavior comprehensible to us. Using code, we distinguish between a team’s shared set of delivery objectives, and their implementations.

Accelerated:

• Through automation:  We automate repeated tasks to speed our work and avoid errors.
• Through reuse:  Common functionality is shared between developers, teams, and organizations.

Observable:  Common means to observe and troubleshoot what happens in the delivery process as a production system.

• Trace:  Observe activity in a system and trace the relationships between actions.
• Debug:  Interact with and inspect and a delivery flow.
• Metrics:  Derive metrics from activity across the entire delivery flow.
