The Agile Fundamentals – Part 15
Agile Fundamentals
Firstly the Agile Fundamentals are based around the Agile philosophy to ship early and ship frequently. The fundamentals state that the product starts with the minimum viable product and the most valuable requirements are added to that. Delivering early is lean and cost effective and as a result developing the product in this manner enables early testing by the customer. Since early testing is achieved through incremental delivery of the product, early and continuous feedback from the customer is also achieved incrementally.
Incremental Delivery
Early incremental project delivery increases the chances of delivering successful projects, and therefore the delivered product is more likely to meet their requirements. Delivering incrementally enables realising business value earlier, furthermore identifying and dealing with risk occurs sooner. The process also puts a focus on the user and also allows for continuous improvement of the processes. The approach for running projects becomes:
* Daily face to face communications for swift problem solving
* Complete Business involvement throughout process
* Reduced time to market for competitive advantage
* Early deliverable’s and quick wins for swift Feedback
* Regular incremental Development for continuous enhancements
* Adaptive and responsive to change
* Focus on Users
* And also a focus on Product delivery
