Slide9StakeholdersThis broad range of stakeholders and their connectedness is actually one key motivation for a common collection management system.„Treating your users as co-developers is your least-hassle route to rapid code improvement and effective debugging.“
Slide10How ensure that our users are co-developers?By running an agile development process:Continuous conversation with users instead of one-off requirements gathering.
Frequent delivery of features in
short development iterations
.Prioritisation of features by user benefit.
