ABSTRACT:
In spirit, both traditional and agile project delivery embody similar principles and?practices that aim to deliver measurable results.?Traditional project delivery can be?described as a ?waterfall? approach, which presumes that the requirements, expectations,?duration, activities and outcomes of projects can be predicted accurately and planned?in a sequence before any actual development activity takes place. As a result, in actual?practice, the following factors generally are significant limitations of traditional project?delivery:Clients typically have difficulty in articulating all project requirements at the?front end.The ultimate goal is to produce a comprehensive requirements document for?sign-off by the users/customers before development can occur.According to Sanjiv Augustine, agile project delivery ?is a way of managing projects to?deliver customer value via adaptive planning, rapid feedback, continuous improvement?and intense human interaction and collaboration? (16). Delivering ?customer value? is a?key aspect of agile project delivery. Agile project management is conducted through the?collaboration of a small, co-located team that usually consists of the customer/end user,?a project manager, a business analyst (or the role of business analysis) and specialist(s).?Specialists could include system developers, subject matter experts, IT architect and/or?the sole person with specific knowledge or expertise who understands how all the project?pieces fit togethe
