PM Insight Sunnyvale Virtual Meeting - Agile Project Management for Complex Tangible ProductsOne of the fastest ways to build business value is to accelerate cycles of learning through rapid product launches and customer engagement.But using Agile methods for tangible products is not simple or straightforward. Despite the gains in Agile software methodologies, those delivering tangible products, for example mobile telephone handsets & medical devices, are still living in a waterfall world. Can you imagine the chaos agility could impose on manufacturing, if not managed? There are certainly different challenges between software and tangible products, but there is also a lot to learn (and apply) from the success of companies that have implemented Agile techniques in their development process.Key to doing this is managing dependencies between a platform and subordinate projects, between related projects, and even fixed corporate calendar events. You can learn more at the Atlassian’s blog post written on the topic:“How to take an agile mindset to rigid waterfall projects”. |
