Although some universities are starting to teach them, courses on agile methods at the undergraduate and graduate levels are still a new phenomenon. The University of Maryland University College (UMUC) adapted agile methods for its capstone course towards a master’s degree in software engineering in the Fall of 2008. Three distributed teams of five students were asked to use agile methods to build competing electronic commerce websites. With little training in agile methods, virtual teams, collaboration tools, or web design, each of the three teams completed fully functional e-commerce websites using agile methods in little more than 13 weeks. Teams who struck an optimum balance of customer collaboration, use of agile methods, and technical programming ability had better productivity and website quality.","PeriodicalId":280848,"journal":{"name":"2009 Agile Conference","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-08-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131153083","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet case studies do not support these assumptions. The authors had the opportunity to compare the productivity, quality and performance of collocated agile teams with distributed agile teams and found that the collocated teams perform substantially better. In the first case a collocated team was eight times more productive, while in the second case, transferring the work to a collocated team saved the project from certain disaster. From these examples and others, there are strong indications that companies should be rediscovering collocated project teams as the old/new paradigm for delivering real value for their IT projects.","PeriodicalId":280848,"journal":{"name":"2009 Agile Conference","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-08-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123887563","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using Scrum to Overhaul a Support Organization","authors":"Bhaven Sheth","doi":"10.1109/AGILE.2009.23","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/AGILE.2009.23","url":null,"abstract":"The Support 2.0 Team at our IT organization has recently completed Phase 1 of the Support 2.0 project. Phase 1 was a four month endeavor with a primary focus of collecting data to understand why support was so costly and identify the root cause for each support request. The team strongly believed that this initial phase would be critical to making significant impacts to the quality and supportability of applications. This experience report describes the challenge for the Support 2.0 Team and shares the successful adoption of agile practices in redefining the support organization. In the spirit of the agile transition to software development one year prior, our IT organization decided to rethink the approach to application support. By embracing agile principles and utilizing agile concepts, such as a cross-functional team, a team collaboration approach with frequent reviews to inspect and adapt as needed, etc, the business was able to reap immediate benefits. It was a challenging journey for the team, where the mix of onshore/offshore support engineers and an integrated client / vendor relationship within an agile team and focused framework helped to transform the support organization from an operational cost center to a value added thought partner. This resulted in a significantly improved culture and effectiveness of the support organization. This unique organization of an agile, cross-functional and team-based approach to handle support requests improved the customer experience, reduced support costs, and ultimately provided greater opportunity for the business to fund new development efforts.","PeriodicalId":280848,"journal":{"name":"2009 Agile Conference","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-08-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120893898","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After some challenging time we stopped the CMMI project and switched back to Agile and Lean techniques with more collaboration. Here we describe our experience with implementing global big bang Scrum and building a kaizen culture.
