What is Agile Software Development?

In IT, classic project procedures such as the waterfall model have not proven their worth. This is due to constantly changing requirements. Rarely does a project end as it was initially planned. Agility not only applies to Project Management, but also to the methods and processes of Software Development in order to avoid risks and undesirable developments during the process.

The methods of Agile Software Development primarily include Scrum and Kanban.

We support you in the agile way of working. Our certified Scrum Masters will be happy to advise you and develop solutions tailored to your individual needs.

Benefits of Agile Software Development

  • Low costs

    Due to a low overhead of meetings and the faster project execution, the costs for medium and larger projects are significantly lower. In addition, the flexibility and continuous feedbacks avoid undesirable developments.

  • Transparency

    In contrast to classic project development, you will be informed about the current status of the project by review at the end of each iteration. This creates transparency and trust.

  • High flexibility

    The short iteration cycle of two weeks gives you the opportunity to change or add priorities and requirements at short notice. 

  • Fast project execution

    Thanks to the self-sufficient team, projects are implemented significantly faster, as the team can pursue its work without dependencies. Obstacles are removed by the Scrum Master.

Methods of Agile Software Development

Scrum for complex projects

Scrum is an agile process model, which is particularly useful for complex projects or product development in the context of Agile Software Development. An interaction is called a sprint. The outcome of each interaction is an MVP (Minimum Viable Product) - the smallest deliverable product.

Scrum includes the following roles:

  • Product Owner: sets and prioritizes business requirements
  • Scrum Master: checks the process and removes obstacles
  • Team: develops independently
  • Stakeholders: Outsiders interested in the project

Model of Kanban for agile software development

Kanban for work that is difficult to plan

In contrast to the team-centered approach of Scrum, Kanban is more open. It does not prescribe roles or interactions and focuses on optimizing value creation along the value chain.

Due to a very limited number of tasks that are allowed in "Work In Progress", lead times are reduced and bottlenecks become more transparent. This makes Kanban particularly suitable for teams with predominantly poorly planned work, for example a service desk. Kanban boards can be mapped particularly well in the ticketing tool Jira from Atlassian.
