The Need for AgilePM

Much senior management is distrustful of agileAgilePM is part of the ‘agile grows up’ movement

“We use SCRUM for our agile projects”

“The agile team just ignored our detailed specification!”

“Agile is just an excuse for technical folk to do whatever they fancy”

“Our PMO

doesn

t work well with agile”

“Where

s the project documentation ?”

“We tried agile using a specialist supplier – it

didn

t work”

“Agile is just for IT”

“Agile projects seem to be out of control”

“We do proper projects – so we use PRINCE2”Slide7

“Agile is just for IT”Not true – AgilePM

is completely generic“Agile teams ignore detailed specifications”AgilePM sets early expectations about what detail is needed, and when

“Agile

projects seem out of control”One of AgilePM’s principles is to be, and be seen to be in control at all times“Our PMO doesn’t work well with agile”AgilePM shows how projects can interface with other stakeholders

“We do proper projects – so we use PRINCE2”

AgilePM

is equivalent to PRINCE2, but takes a much more agile approach

“We use SCRUM for our agile projects”SCRUM is just a product development method. AgilePM

wraps around SCRUM very neatly to add vital project elements“We tried agile using a specialist supplier – it didn’t work”

AgilePM

engages both customer and supplier in a project – it sets expectations for both parties“Agile is just an excuse for technical folk to work on whatever they fancy”AgilePM is completely driven by customer needs. It’s the first principle.“Where’s the project documentation ?”AgilePM documents where it adds value. It is NOT document-free
