Idea Solution


Agile management or agile project management is an iterative method of determining requirements for engineering and information technology development projects in a highly flexible and interactive manner, for example agile software development. It requires empowered individuals from the relevant business, with supplier and customer input.[citation needed] There are also links to lean techniques, Kanban and Six Sigma.[1] Agile techniques are best used in small-scale projects or on elements of a wider programme of work, or on projects that are too complex for the customer to understand and specify before testing prototypes.[2]
Agile techniques may also be called extreme project management. It is a variant of iterative life cycle where deliverables are submitted in stages. One difference between agile and iterative development is that the delivery time in agile is in weeks rather than months.
The Agile Project Leadership Network provides a community of practice for those using Agile methods, with international conferences and online forums. Their Declaration of Interdependence extends the Agile Manifesto further into the value stream and emphasises the collaborative, whole-business nature of this work.
