What is Agile and how to make it
successful?
What is Agile?
Agile is a way to manage projects. It can be used for virtually
anything, but it was founded in software development.
In agile methodology, the large tasks are divided into small modules/
iterations. At the end of each iteration something of value is produced.
Unlike Waterfall project management, which is strictly sequenced: you don’t
start design until research is done and you don’t start development until the
designs are signed off on. Agile involves cross functional teams like planning,
requirement analysis, designing, developing, testing to work simultaneously.

Individuals and interactions over
processes and tools
Working software over
comprehensive documentation
Customer collaboration over
contract negotiation
Responding to change over
following a plan
How it Works
The whole project is divided into break ups which are then allotted sprints
(the time estimates that are allotted to each breakdown). Each Sprint is
further divided among following processes –
Following factors are considered at
this point –
• Project Goals
• People who will be involved in the
project
• Creation of Project Backlog
• Determine what features to work
on
Sprint Planning
Project Backlog
It is a list of features that the end
users wish to see in the website or
mobile app. Once the features are
concentrated in one place, they are
divided into priorities.
The features are then divided into
the various iterations or sprints,
according to the priority and flow of
the website or mobile app.
Feature Estimation
Sifting and sorting by the various
factors can help break down a
large feature list into some
manageable chunks.
Feature estimation makes it easier
for the project team to judge what
all requirements are in priority and
which can be handled on a later
date.
Review
At this stage, every sprint is
discussed in terms of its feasibility,
operation, and improvement.
Following this step, either the next
sprint is taken up or the project
backlogs are prioritized again.
How to make your Agile Project a Success
• Open Communication:
Being in the loop about what is ahead of schedule and what is behind, can
help ease the concerns emerging with unpredictability. A translucent
process keeps both the clients and team members at ease and focused.
• Having a Standalone team:
To ensure the success of your project, have a separate project management
team which would later collaborate with those focusing on the one project.
• Devised Planning:
Coming up with a strong project backlog and estimating all the features are
the two grounds which you will have to plan, rigorously.
