The primary benefit of this book is to promote a sense of
common purpose and collaboration between the project
delivery and the organization.
Agile project delivery methods are adaptable to the emer-
gence of unknown requirements identified in the later part
of the project delivery lifecycle. The key success factor is di-
rect business participation and collaboration to ensure that
a business focus determines the output. Agile promotes
innovation and creates synergies through a business focus
viewing technology deployments as a catalyst for change
rather than the final objective. Technology investments
implemented through Agile processes result in improved
market leadership, organizational alignment, and resource
efficiency delivering competitive advantage.
