Agile or Lean Startup methodologies
Agile Development
‘’Agile Software Development is an umbrella term for a set of methods and practices based on the values and principles expressed in the Agile Manifesto. Solutions
evolve through collaboration between self-organizing, cross-functional teams utilizing the appropriate practices for their context.’’
Here in Plenumsoft, we implement Scrum Theory
‘’Scrum Theory is founded on empirical process control theory, or empiricism, which asserts that knowledge comes from experience and making decisions based on what is known.’’
How does Scrum Theory work?
Stage 1
Determine a budget and timeframe to fit each individual client and build the best team.
Stage 2
The client and the product owner generate a product backlog, which is a register of functions prioritized in order or importance, and can be adjusted at any point throughout the project.
Stage 3
Sprint planning followed by construction of an MVP built by the development team and scrum master usually over a span of 4 weeks.
Stage 4
A Sprint Review is held at the end of each Sprint to inspect, increment and adapt the product backlog if needed. Followed by a Sprint Retrospective, an opportunity for the Scrum Team to inspect itself and create a plan for improvements for the next Sprint.
Stage 5
The sprint is then repeated until all increments of the product backlog have been completed, paying close attention to the designated time available. Once all increments are defined as ‘Done’ a functional, usable product is delivered.
What are the benefits for using Scrum Theory?
Scrum theory allows our clients to steer the direction of their project’s development throughout its lifecycle, while at the same time reducing costs, increasing flexibility and helping them reach higher.
Lean Startup
Lean startup methodology, first devised by Eric Reis in 2008, aims to shorten product development cycles by concentrating on developing products or services to
meet the needs of early customers therefor reducing risks, optimizing costs and minimalizing failures.
“The Lean Startup method teaches you how to drive a startup-how to steer, when to turn, and when to persevere-and grow a business with maximum acceleration.”
How does Lean Startup work?
What comes first?
Stage 1
Determine a budget and timeframe to fit each individual client and build the best team.
Stage 2
First, the experiment is designed, the client’s objective users identified and a product backlog generated. This is a register of a list of functions prioritized in order or importance, and can be adjusted at any point throughout the project.
Stage 3
Sprint planning followed by construction of an MVP built by the development team, scrum master and project leader usually over a span of 4 weeks.
Stage 4
A Sprint Review is held at the end of each Sprint to inspect, increment and adapt the product backlog if needed. Followed by a Sprint Retrospective, an opportunity for the Scrum Team to inspect itself and create a plan for improvements for the next Sprint.
Stage 5
Following each construction sprint, the project leader and an experimenter must execute the experiment, which usually takes 1.5 weeks. Here, information is collected, synthesized and measurements are taken.
Stage 6
At the end of each sprint, the project leader carries out a Pivot. Here, decisions regarding what has been learnt throughout the experiment are made which will affect the following sprint.
Stage 7
The sprint is then repeated until all increments of the product backlog have been completed, paying close attention to the designated time available. Once all increments are defined as ‘Done’, a functional, usable product is delivered.
