The document introduces Agile, which aims to deliver customer value through speed, economy and quality. It discusses how consumer and business expectations have increased and how Agile can help align these expectations. The Agile Manifesto values individuals and interactions, working software, customer collaboration and responding to change over comprehensive documentation, contract negotiation, and following a plan.
7. Increased Consumer Expectations As consumers today we want and expect innovative products: faster, cheaper and with better quality than those we’ve seen in the past. Consumer Expectations
8. Increased Work Pressure As knowledge workers, our business tools have improved our capability to be productive, raising work expectations. BusinessExpectations
9. Misaligned Expectations However, Instead of this… Productivity driving Customer value Consumer Expectations Business Expectations Consumer Expectations Business Expectations We usually get this… Misalignment of Value definitions Consumer Expectations Or all too often, this. Orthogonal opposition to Customer Value Business Expectations

28. Manifesto Principles Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer through early and continuous delivery of valuable software. Working software is the primary measure of progress. Agile processes promote sustainable development. The sponsors, developers, and users should be able to maintain a constant pace indefinitely. Welcome changing requirements, even late in development. Agile processes harness change for the customer's competitive advantage. Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer through early and continuous delivery of valuable software. Deliver working software frequently, from a couple of weeks to a couple of months, with a preference to the shorter timescale. Continuous attention to technical excellence and good design enhances agility. Business people and developers must work together daily throughout the project. Simplicity--the art of maximizing the amount of work not done--is essential. Build projects around motivated individuals. Give them the environment and support they need, and trust them to get the job done. The best architectures, requirements, and designs emerge from self-organizing teams. The most efficient and effective method of conveying information to and within a development team is face-to-face conversation. At regular intervals, the team reflects on how to become more effective, then tunes and adjusts its behavior accordingly.
