Why Agile?
Agile Development For CIOs
Are all of your projects delivered on time, on budget and defect-free? Are you
delivering exactly what the customer wants? How do you know what the customer
wants until your project is delivered?
Agile development addresses these concerns, directly. The IT community has
evolved a better way to build softwarea way that puts the customer's
needs front and center. Whether it goes by the name of Extreme Programming
(XP), Agile Project Management, Scrum, Feature-Driven Development, or Crystal
Clear, the goal and the benefits are the same.
Only recently have agile development's benefits been recognized for the value
they bring to the bottom line. An agile approach to development means:
- Maximum ROISoftware provides revenue producing functionality throughout the project lifespan.
- Increased Speed of DeliveryEvery two weeks new deployable business functionality is delivered.
- Improved QualityContinuous testing results in near-zero defects.
- Maximum FlexibilityChanging business requirements don't disrupt delivery dates.
- Reduced CostsCost reduction is achieved by not building low value features.
- Minimum RiskProgress is measured every two weeks.
