Abstract

Purpose In software development (SD), practitioners have realized the importance of lean thinking. A new term “Leagile” is coined, which is an integrated approach of traditional lean and agile thinking to managing the operations. The study aims to investigate the application of the Leagile principles in a new sector and establish a relationship between the adoption of Leagile approach and operational performance (OP) in SD organizations. Design/methodology/approach Empirical research is conducted to investigate the linkage between the Leagile principles and operational measures. Data is collected through surveys from 256 SD industries located in 11 states of India and analysed using the structural equation modelling approach. Findings The practitioners envisage a positive impact of adoption of Leagile principles on OP of SD organizations, but one of the principles, i.e. perfection, is unable to influence the performance. Originality/value The study contributes by authorizing the contribution of Leagile principles towards OP of SD organizations. The outcomes will motivate the practitioners to enhance the adoption of Leagile principles in SD organizations.

敏捷软件开发对操作性能的影响

在软件开发(SD)中，从业者已经意识到精益思维的重要性。一个新的术语“敏捷”被创造出来，它是传统的精益和敏捷思想的集成方法来管理运营。本研究旨在调查敏捷原则在一个新领域的应用，并建立在可持续发展组织中采用敏捷方法与运营绩效(OP)之间的关系。设计/方法/方法进行了实证研究，以调查敏捷原则和操作措施之间的联系。数据是通过对位于印度11个邦的256个SD行业的调查收集的，并使用结构方程建模方法进行分析。研究结果实践者设想采用敏捷原则对可持续发展组织的OP产生积极影响，但其中一个原则，即完美，无法影响绩效。独创性/价值该研究通过授权敏捷原则对可持续发展组织的OP的贡献来做出贡献。结果将激励实践者在可持续发展组织中加强敏捷原则的采用。
