Agile Methods
High-performance, flexible and resilient teams put the customer in focus.
Agile methods and principles increase flexibility, enhance resilience and improve performance, especially in tasks where there is a high degree of uncertainty regarding requirements and procedures.
Agile Methods
For us, the application of agility and lean management is not a contradiction, but a meaningful complement. Both ways of thinking put the customer in the center and include valuable tools to increase the added value and the experience for the customer. It is a question of the task and starting situation whether agile or lean methods lead to the better result.
Where does agile make sense?
In complex tasks, we use agile methods to get quick and regular feedback from the customer to ensure we are on the right track. Complex means that both the requirements are not fully available at the beginning and may change, and the method, technology or process that leads to the fulfillment of the requirements is not fully known. An agile approach in iterative steps (sprint) with creation of an increment, which is presented to the customer, is target-oriented.
Such an initial situation is often found in IT areas as well as research and development areas.
