"Technical debt isn't just a developer inconvenience-it's a material drag on enterprise innovation. The numbers tell a stark story: Forrester reports that nearly 20% of IT budgets are spent managing technical debt instead of advancing new capabilities. The Journal of Systems and Software found that developers lose an average of 23% of their working time dealing with technical debt. According to Accenture, in the US alone, tech debt costs $2.41 trillion a year and would require $1.52 trillion to fix."
