A short summary of this paper. The majority of these methodologies focus on how to comply with three parameters: time, cost and quality instead of identifying the positive outcomes and benefits for an organiza- tion.
In this paper, a different approach for the organization is presented, which focuses on positive outcomes named as benefits. Change can be proven tives goals and overall strategic activities planning. Managing change can result in different outcomes perspectives. More precisely, the lacking of efficient com- and desired outcomes can be quantified as benefits. However, from the past experience in a project-based environment. In order to overcome these barriers, it is projects fail.

In February , a group of seventeen software professionals gathered at the Snowbird resort in Utah and discussed what the failed projects had in common, and discuss lightweight development methods.
The graph below depicts the reach of agile project management in different arenas as per a survey conducted by VersionOne and Scrum Alliance group. Through this work we have come to value: Individuals and interactions over Processes and tools Working software over Comprehensive documentation Customer collaboration over Contract negotiation Responding to change over following a plan That is, while there is value in the items on the right, we value the items on the left more.
This can also help the customer refine their requirements better, and increases the likelihood, of delivering a product that is not only on budget, and on time, but gains user adoption. Moreover, these requirements may change between the start of the project and final implementation.
Agile methods are focused on quick responses to change and continuous development requirements. For Agile projects, Change is not a bad word. Agile Principles The Agile Manifesto is based on twelve principles: 1. Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer through early and continuous delivery of valuable software. Welcome changing requirements, even late in development. Agile processes harness change for the customer's competitive advantage.
Deliver working software frequently, from a couple of weeks to a couple of months, with a preference to the shorter timescale. Business people and developers must work together daily throughout the project. Build projects around motivated individuals. Give them the environment and support they need, and trust them to get the job done.
The most efficient and effective method of conveying information to and within a development team is face-to-face conversation. Working software is the primary measure of progress. Agile processes promote sustainable development. The sponsors, developers, and users should be able to maintain a constant pace indefinitely. Continuous attention to technical excellence and good design enhances agility.
Simplicity--the art of maximizing the amount of work not done--is essential. The best architectures, requirements, and designs emerge from self-organizing teams.
At regular intervals, the team reflects on how to become more effective, then tunes and adjusts its behaviour accordingly. Agile Practices and Methods Over the past few years, many Agile methods have emerged, and are followed in different industries. While these methods share much of same Agile philosophy, characteristics, and practices, they also each have some unique tactics and terminology. As the popularity and acceptance of Agile has grown in industry, so have the number of practices and methods.
The diagram below depicts many of the practices under the agile umbrella. Describing all these practices is outside the scope of this paper. The product backlog consists of features, bug fixes, requirements, etc. Lean concentrates on the efficiency of use of team resources, as well as fewest possible intra-team work flow dependencies.
There are eight principles underpinning the DSDM approach. Further results also show that Another study by the same group found that four out of the five key factors contributing to project failure were associated with and aggravated by the waterfall model, including inability to deal with changing requirements, and problems with late integration.
These findings reveal the shortcomings of the waterfall model and tag it as an inefficient was to build a product or software. Hence, a major portion of the industry has moved onto implementing agile alternatives. Major goals which companies seek when preferring Agile over other methods. Faster-to-market: The Agile development methodology promotes the concept of early and regular roll out of the product through iterations and beta demonstrations, which in turn results in hitting the markets early.
Enhanced Quality: With frequent sprint retrospectives, and continual improvisations through iteration, agile process is designed to produce better quality products. The methodology also defines proactive methods to prevent product problems and also has tools and methods to support the vision.
