needs assessment |
Is your Agile Development approach working for you? Or, if
you are thinking about adopting Agile, do you have the capabilties
to succeed? Answer the 12 questions below to determine your
need for SPC's Agile coaches:
Rank your total on the
following scale:
Immediate Need: 10-12 points
- Most, if not all, the factors needed for Agile projects
to be successful are missing. SPC can conduct an immediate
retrospective and assessment of your current situation to
uncover the root causes of your problems. A solution involving
training and facilitated project workshops, backed up by
team coaching/mentoring, can be devised that will provide
positive results starting with your very next iteration,
or even the next day!
Contact
an SPC representative to get started right away.
Urgent Need: 6-9 points
- While some of the important success factors for Agile
projects are present, enough are missing (or are inconsistently
present) to jeopardize you chances of success. A facilitaed
retrospective led by one of SPC's expert Agile coaches will
uncover the underlying issues and get everyone back on the
same page. Backed up by additional training and coaching
as needed, you can tap into SPC's expert knowledge and relevant
insights to drive improved collaboration, better manage
your requirements backlog, deliver more business value,
and create a more productive project environment.
Contact an SPC representative to explore your best options.
Evaluation Recommended: 4-5 points
- You've got many of the basics under control. Now you're
ready to go to the next level. A short evaluation of your
current issues and opportunities by one of SPC's expert
Agile coaches will help identify where you can leverage
more advanced Agile practices to align your development
efforts even closer to the needs of the business bottom
line. SPC's catalog
of Agile training includes topics such as Test-Driven
Development, Continuous Integration, Agile Estimating, Agile
Requirements, and Agile Testing can boost team performance
to new heights.
Contact
an SPC representative to explore how you can evaluate
your position.
Modest to None: 3 or fewer points
- SPC's program of Agile training courses and facilitated
workshops could be a great addition to your already successful
Agile teams. Our catalog includes topics such as Test-Driven
Development, Continuous Integration, Agile Requirements
and Testing, Agile Estimating/planning, Managing/Building
requirements backlog and more. Review your "No"
answers and consider the cost of them.
Contact an SPC representative, we will help you decide
if further action is necessary.
