Building a bridge using an Agile approach is not a good idea for three main reasons:
1. Building a bridge requires a high degree of certainty since there is no room for error given issues of public safety.
2. Agile methods are best suited for contexts with high uncertainty where initial information is inadequate and flexibility exists to experiment.
3. Waterfall methods are more effective for projects requiring certainty where risks cannot be mitigated through experimentation.

AGILITY IS NOW
INDISPENSABLE FOR
DEVELOPING PRODUCTS AND
SERVICES
Indispensable? Really?
Perhaps not always.

A WATERFALL METHOD IS
EFFECTIVE IN CONTEXTS
THAT ARE CERTAIN AND
WHERE THERE IS NO ROOM
FOR ERROR.
When the initial information
is inadequate and the product is sufficiently
flexible to allow for experimenting, empirical
approaches such as Agile methods are most
effective.
So for which contexts are Agile methods
best suited?

AGILE OR NOT AGILE,
THAT IS THE
QUESTION
Agile approaches are not the solution to all problems.
Agile methods are highly relevant when uncertainties
cannot be verified through analysis, but rather through
experimentation.
To use or not to use an Agile method is therefore,
not a choice by default, but rather a decision that
must be made before each of our projects.
