Leading Agile Companies to Host One Day Agile Transformation Workshop
AccuRev, Enthiosys, IBM, GlobalLogic, and Rally Partner to Increase Agile Awareness and Adoption
Lexington, MA, April 23, 2009 – AccuRev Inc. today announced that it has joined with Enthiosys, IBM, GlobalLogic, and Rally Software to host a one day Agile transformation workshop on April 30, 2009 in San Mateo, California. Agile software process adoption rates continue to increase, and there is an increasing need for Agile transformation training and best practices.
This Agile movement is driving software development executives to rethink how they build their products. Companies are developing, managing and supporting software products to keep pace with faster markets, while improving quality and customer satisfaction.
Changing software development processes has become mission critical for many organizations since:
- 60% of features in software development projects are unused
- 35% of initial requirements change before the completion of a project
- 55% of projects miss the initial schedule
This one day workshop is designed for software executives looking to increase revenue and profitability, and build better products with greater customer loyalty. The agenda will include detailed presentations, interactive exercises and open discussion about:
- Agile development approaches including distributed Agile methods, the history of Agile, and the Agile manifesto
- A detailed walkthrough of Scrum, one Agile approach
- The organizational changes required for successful Agile adoption: executive commitment, cross-functional teams, and coaching
- Hear first-hand from an Agile practitioner and one of your peers about how to bring about Agile adoption and improved results.
